Yeah, that’s a tiktok-ism that’s been imported into Loops since a lot of videos are just reuploaded from there. Hopefully since Loops isn’t beholden to advertisers, it can care more about accessibility and maybe allow for video options like toggling text like that off. It’s burned into the video for now, but I could see a feature where it’s not, and displayed like regular video subtitles.

Yep. I think it’s going to be a somewhat controversial answer, for people that think the Fediverse doesn’t need anything of the sort. I think there’s a lot of value there though, if the platform can be built up to not just focus on lowest-common denominator engagement.

I’m really looking forward to solar, but I will never touch anything I don’t own myself, for this exact reason. They took the shitty business model of game “licensing” and applied it to physical goods. The other issue is that sometimes your power can go out and you’ve got solar panels, but they’re owned by the utility company, run straight to the grid, and you’re not allowed to use them, making them useless for you.
