You can create a tmpfs on other storage devices as well, just curious what their setup looked like

From personal experience intel QSV wasn’t worth the trouble to txshoot on my hardware. Mine is a lot older than yours though. Vaapi has worked well on my arc card

Is the tmpfs on RAM?

It makes me sad that progressive web apps were killed off

The result was still unlabeled sexual content. They had categories specifically for that, but it was rarely adhered to from my own experience

If you’re complaining my perspective is reductive how is yours any different? You could argue whatever takes Omegle’s place will be worse, sure. I respect that you have a different opinion

I’ll adjust my complaint to the need for better AI moderation. You’re ignoring that the Omegle was shut down shortly after a lawsuit settlement surrounding child exploitation. I don’t personally believe organizations or people should be able to outgrow something like that without consequences

What was reductive about my description? I qualified my experience with the good and bad. My only real complaint was the lack of moderation. Lemmy has its issues, sure, but it has community driven moderation whereas Omegle had essentially zero. Not to mention the accessibility and notoriety of Omegle far exceeded Lemmy

I enjoyed having Omegle exist, and I’m happy there’s space for something else to take its place

That’s the only problem I see with the platform personally

Omegle has always been primarily men masturbating to (for?) random people on the Internet. It was kind of a cesspool from the beginning so you didn’t miss much

Anecdote for the road: I was in my early teens when Omegle was in its heyday. Even then it was a minefield of done people that wanted to roulette chat and men masturbating to primarily children my age. I met a lot of cool people to talk to and it was my first real personal/video interaction with people over the Internet

When I was about 13 I started getting on Omegle to have men masturbate to me and tell me I was pretty. They would always ask how old I was or that I looked young. Looking back I can see that as harmful behavior, but I was old enough to have a semblance of control to never share any identifiable information nor show my face. Basically, Omegle was my homosexual “awakening” as I hadn’t had those experiences up to that point

If a similar platform with maybe AI moderation came along I could get behind it. While I don’t view my experience as personally damaging, I can see the avenue for grooming and exploitation and I’m glad they finally shuttered

Universities are there to make profits first and educate maybe second

So you’re saying it’s available? 👀
