Another question regarding the Fediverse: "Would politicians, press, higher learning, celebrities actually ever be bothered to self-host an instance and pay someone to maintain it?"
Again, Automattic answers that question.
What do all those institutions use for their websites? Self-hosted WordPress sites.
Who runs it? Someone they pay.
Self-hosting and maintenance can not only be normalized -- people would probably be happy to do it.
Automattic is one of the most important companies on the Internet.
They make Tumblr, WooCommerce, Akismet, LongReads, WordPressâamong others.
WordPress alone powers ~44% of the world's websites.
More interesting: despite being such a large, dominant company, few people hate Automattic.
Why is this? đ§”

@aaronpk the #raspberrypi does not actually have the horsepower to âCreate multiple resolutions of your video and push different resolutions to different platformsâ, right? It has trouble encodingone stream at 720p.

@aaronpk @metawops https://github.com/datarhei/restreamer This is what we are using. Itâs based on the same nginx modules but everything works via the web interface after docker compose up. Just love it as it helps saving money for multistreaming.
