    I think a few folks haven't read the article or know who Jeff Geerling is. The title of this article is confusing.

    Jeff posted a video on YT about how to self-host your own media in 2024. He recently got a violation from YT that YT considers his video to be harmful and dangerous. He appealed, got denied, but then the update is that YT removed the violation.

      I remember when the iPhone came out, it was a little more than an iPod that made calls. The rest is history.

      I think you might be misremembering; the original iPhone had YouTube, maps (though it lacked a GPS for whatever reason), a camera, Safari, and even a primitive HTML based App Store that paved the way for modern PWAs. Games like Bejeweled were available months before iOS 2.0 came with the App Store.

      The Moto ROKR was an iPod that made calls.

        MP3 players aren't bad, they're just mostly obsolete when smartphones can do the same thing and we mostly already have one.

        I like to keep several GB of music on my phone from my MP3 library, and I have no streaming music accounts. I pay once for my music at most.

        There is a subsection of mp3 players that have enough power to drive high impedance headphones, Hifi players, some call them. They still make decent sales to their customer base of particular people.

          You're right. It was released almost at the same time as the 1st gen iPod touch, and that iPod ran the same OS as the iPhone (then named iPhone OS). I thought the iPod touch came before, it didn't. The iPod classic was significantly different from the iPhone.

            Saw the video… It mentions ”ripping” and even shows clips of some blockbuster movies. No wonder any copyright-sensitive automation gets triggered pretty fast. This will only get worse.

              Jeff should consider hosting on Peertube and keeping his Patreon active. He's awesome and more than capable, I'd mirror him in a hot second.

                        He's on float plane. I think he's trying to make a living, so I'd assume YouTube ad revenue is a factor

                          It's pretty harmful to Googles cloud business.

                            I'll never support anyone on that platform. I'll never do anything to give LTT a cent.

                              Flotplane is a decent enough alternative. They keep gutting YouTube's ad-rev, sooner or later, something will have to give.

                                Yeah I remember once when my friends Synology started acting harmful when he run jellyfin on it. it started off gasing mustard gas. It poisoned the well and made his son addicted to zyns. All of the cars in his neighborhood needed new batteries. The country's GTP dropped a lot that month and the ozone layer is gone. Thank God YouTube stopped platforming such harmful content. Too bad so luch damage has already been done.

                                  Pretty fast? The video was uploaded in 2024.

                                    Tbh there also was iPod Touch, which did everything iPhone did except making calls.

                                      ”Pretty fast” after they tuned those automations to the current setting. And they will keep turning it that way unfortunately.

                                        Yeah I'm not big on LTT either, I'd like to see him on Nebula. The price is reasonable and they have some really good high quality content.
