AI generated YouTube channels are already a thing and bring in millions of views.

Lemmy and Mastodon technically communicate on the same protocol, but they don’t currently communicate with each other in any meaningful way. Possibly in the future, but probably not imo.

Matris does not use E2E encryption for most channels. Its primary draw is federation, not security or anonymity.

I’m going to set the fallback thumbnail to the original instead of a random thumbnail. The randomly generated thumbnails are too out of context to be useful.
