Taking your ideas for my next linux app
Taking your ideas for my next linux app
I'm bored and want to practice my Rust skills. I am the creator of open-tv. If you have any idea for a linux desktop app, even if it seems quite complex, I will take it.

I wrote a version of this in Python a few years ago, but it depended on external tools like ffmpeg to work, limiting its portability. The Python requirement was also a major factor for adoption.
If it were ported to Rust, doing the (de)serialisation internally, I believe that it could have far-reaching implications on how we share and consume news:

If you're interested, I presented the Python version at PyCon UK a while back.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
Cool project. Perhaps something could be implemented on the fediverse. It might even help prevent people from cropping out credits 😀.
That's an interesting thought. There's a lot of cases you see where people have stripped a comic's name from the bottom of the image, but that's not really what this project was designed for. Aletheia will guarantee you that the person/company sharing the media is who they say they are, but critically it won't prevent infringement.
The example I give in my talk is that InfoWars could take a BBC news story and say "we made this", but it wouldn't let them modify that story and claim that "the BBC made this". The goal is to be able to re-connect what someone is saying with the reputation of the person saying it, with the hope that we can start delegating our trust to individuals and organisations again.
