Nothing can compare yet to YouTube.

The main reason is: YouTube is not only a distribution channel. It is also its own promotion channel tied to a search engine which magnifies that promotion.

You open YouTube and it offers similar videos tho what you’ve been watching. You search for something and there is probably a video (or many( matching what you are searching.

Other platforms are currently only distribution channels. You upload the video and promote it through other channels. Whether your own website or posts somewhere else.

Si, if you are a content producer and want to share, the current fediverse solutions are great, however it will need critical mass to attract content consumers.

And without content consumers, it will be hard to attract content providers who want a broad distribution and exposure.

So, let’s start moving out own content to the fediverse and use other channels to promote them. Let’s create a snowball effect. We could even post to several and see where the content consumers gravitate to.

That was an interesting choice of words “inside”

I thought DEs were around the WM. This is, you run a WM in a DE.

All those “experts” lecturing you and they don’t even know about man in the middle attacks.

They don’t know that there are active bots searching for HTTP addresses to inject risky code or redirect to malicious sites.

You providing some feedback which may help OP is seen as criticism.

They had me u til “your dad installs it”

Removing the word “windows” in the last frame and also “your dad installs it for your dumb mom” to “your parents install a server. Maybe your mom does it or your dad does it. Maybe you can also help!”

Teaching “children” that technical tasks are for dady to do is so cringe.

Those two little changes and it becomes a readable story.

Once you implement Authentication/Authorization it’s fairly simple to add a new function.

I think here, the problem is not the complexity of the task, but the developer’s prioritization based on all the backlogged features.

Still, users can do this on their own. Directly on the folder, autorotating all pictures using wildcards.

You can start with what you can. What can provide the most value and iteratively improve from there.

Sometimes as a developer or even product manager, you don’t know what feature complete really means until people start using it.

Oh, by the way: https://imagemagick.org/script/formats.php

I’m just learning about the software but all the tasks you listed (crop, rotate and adjust), can be done easily with imagemagick simple one-liners.

For example: Convert in.jpg -rotate out.jpg

Or

Using the auto-orient option or using jhead.

Why is it so hard for this app to implement it?
