A good man


Sรฉrgio lives on the edge of Brazilโ€™s Atlantic Forest โ€“ a crucial but often overlooked ecosystem compared to the Amazon. Like much of the land in Brazil, Sรฉrgioโ€™s property had once been cleared of trees to make space for cattle grazing. Realizing that he can make a difference, Sรฉrgio decided to restore the forest in his own backyard.

Fast forward 10 years and Sรฉrgio has planted more than 11,000 trees.
Thanks to the Ecosia community and our local partner, Instituto Espinaรงo, he hasnโ€™t only restored his own land, but also brought life back to a small piece of Brazilโ€™s forgotten forest.

Open letter from Elizabeth May (leader of the Green Party of Canada)


"As the leader of the Green Party of Canada, I feel myself first and foremost to be a servant leader, to the Greens, as an employee of my constituents, and - hoping not to sound too goody-two shoes about it! - to the people of Canada. In that role I have probably never felt the need to put Canada first, and my party second, as I have had since the issue of foreign interference started to dominate the headlines...Now we are immersed in an even more shocking series of revelations that a foreign government has actually murdered Canadians on Canadian soil."

As with all the different federated platforms, each will require its own account, which IMHO is actually a good thing.

Yes, you can link videos within a Lemmy/Kbin thread that points to the video, just like you would with any other video link.

However, when it comes to interactivity/comments in order for this to happen a user needs to follow the channel, for example try following this @Blender

From the point you start following, it will pop up in your timeline like any other user and your comments to it will show up on their instance, just like a YouTube comment.

I have been able to post in a Lemmy community from an Mbin instance without having a Lemmy account, so the separate account limitation is not a universal limitation. Hence why I asked. In any case, I appreciate the answer.

Iโ€™ll also say that there is a privacy issue with this design. If I am in a video, my appearance, voice, & part of the world I am in are all revealed & subject to facial rec. I donโ€™t generally want my biometrics to then be linked to my threadiverse accts.

So this limitation creates an burden of having to register and maintain more accounts. Registration is increasingly slow and tedious to fight bots, so we often have to write something about ourselves and possibly solve a captcha to create a new Lemmy account.

When it comes to the video, you could make it using your actual identity as you do on Youtube, no difference. Since it's only a peertube account there is no link to any of your other fediverse accounts ... which is why I prefer separate identities as well.

in reply to LPS

I would never touch Youtube. YT also blocks me anyway. Nor would I disclose my identity to peertube beyond whatโ€™s unavoidable as far as biometrics goes.

It would be useful if peertube would add the capability to post to Lemmy (as Kbin does). Until then, we have the burden of creating an extra kbin or lemmy acct just to add a link.



As a visual artist myself, I found this video to be so incredibly inspiring and at the same time it expresses something I've always felt but had difficulty expressing to non-artists.

Danny Gregory goes into how he uses his sketchbook as a visual journal of his life, it's impact on how he experiences the world around him, and how it also creates joy and connection in his life.

I don't believe this is limited to any specific creative pursuit, but rather all creative pursuits. In this day and age where society is obsessed with money and all things quantifiable, we often forget how essential Art is to the human experience.

Take a look, it will make your day:)

Yes, interesting. Similar with writing and journaling...

There is no limit to their lies and justification of their war crimes.

Of course, the world is silent and complicit and already forgotten about the ongoing #genocide in #Gaza.
