what is the endgame of this cat and mouse game?

Same as usual: the mouse loses unless it assembles and unionizes with other mouses and they bring in a guillotine.

on the scale of YouTube

That's precisely the trick. Don't try to copy Youtube. You're gonna lose. And it's not the Peertube intended use case anyway.

Instead, Peertube and other such platforms should work as cross-indexing domain-specific, configuration-specific video galleries. A retro videogame video archive does not need 4K 120fps Dobly 14.3 audio; they can just encode most of everything in 480i 30fps and their storage costs will go down significantly. A news report / news reel archive can save some costs by encoding as SDR (or even lower) with ~80kbps mono MP3 audio or somesuch, since most of everything past the intro jingle is human voice.

Play to your advantages. Trying to break into a monopoly game where the rules are broken, the only other player is broken, and the entry fees are broken is self-defeating.

May this be the hoped-for token of enshittification that will spring Peertube and other platforms upwards!

A shame. I was liking the instance enough that I was thinking of getting an account there.

I hope we don't kill this like how we kill Mozilla when it makes a plan to make money.

What? Not tell them? But governments love information!

Nothing less to expect from a neo-fascist country like Spain, tbh. They also deny Cataluña the right of cultural self-determination, to the point of not even being able to use signage in their own language.

Oh btw: Proton collaborates with them.

First: it's not new, it's been around since C++03.

Second... it's not even that great. It's more characters to type and you have to deal with stds and colons. (void) is a classic and works everywhere.

But hey, at least it's not static_cast<void>(...).

Oh yeah I was looking from the sidelines back when something like that happened in Argentina with the banks trying to freeze draw-outs. Fun times.

Get all my money out of the bank in physical and keep living. Since encryption is dead, internet commerce is dead and keeping any sort of money in digital is now unsecured.

Unlike Javascript XD

I have no problem with localizing error messages... I just think an error handler is the absolutelest wrong place to do it. Localize it in the manual. Appendix C page 3, "Spanish / Español". Error routines should print machine-readable information. A couple numbers. Maybe a smiley (or, given the context, frownley).

Yeah they are quite good and they do basically fall under "just wrap an integer".

as with F------k, R----t, T-----r

My dude. My gal. Sibling of my Fediverse. We are in the Fediverse. You don't need to tiktok-censorship yourself like that. You don't need to fallback to 2000s cringe. Embrace the Fediverse. Embrace the truth.

Do so! It's fun. You can do things like trying to write a long text into a narrow box without it overflowing!

...I'm sane!

I've heard that Svelte is the antithesis of Tailwind. No idea how true that is because I haven't even gotten there yet.

...To edit a binary? 👀

When you could have spent it programming an Open Document Writer document instead? For shame!

Got it, JS is not a programming language then!
