  • Related, What about a personal instance only I use? I can choose what communities I want but I can’t control what is posted on those communities. Someone could post something illegal to a beehaw community (and have) and the mods remove it, but does the deletion of images and posts federate? In know matrix keeps copies of every deleted file in a room on all homeservers, what about lemmy?









  • I have done some testing and I found a few reasons I’m having issues with webtorrent:

    • The only reason they where working at all is because they were downloading from the HTTP URL in the torrent file, P2P was not working at all.

    • To download the webtorrent from the blender instance I need to have the video watched in my browser to peer with the webtorrent client, the instance peers don’t work on non-peertube webtorrent clients.

    • The reason instant.io was broken is my adblocker was blocking the tracker.

    • The tracker in my peertube instance is broken.

    EDIT:
    I was a bit wrong here, there are two different formats in peertube: webtorrent and HLS. I was getting confused why the video on my instance (HLS) and the one on the blender one (webtorrent) was behaving differently with webtorrent clients. They are completely different formats so that makes sense now.
