Exciting announcement!

@rozeboosje Because they're not European.
Freedom of Movement is one of the 4 freedoms under our
Treaties. It's not free. There are tradeoffs. You're supposed to pool sovereignty to participate in the Single Market, it's overseen by Courts under law. Btw, Canada has 0 business being in the SM since Manitoba and Québec trade less freely with each other than Sweden and Bulgaria do inside the SM. Why would any EUropean want to dilute the EU, plus extra vetoes in the 2 Councils?
@Veza85UE @hpod16 If that's all true, Canada would not qualify and in that case the point is moot. The point I'm making is obviously contingent on a close alignment between the EU and Canada or Australia. Until that is achieved, if it's even something those countries were aiming for, it is of course a non runner. All I am saying is that merely not being on the continent of Europe should not be an obstacle. Other obstacles, of course, remain.

@rozeboosje The point is moot because Canada is not a European country and our Treaties and our Union are supposed to *mean* something to us. Again, we're not the UN, nor the OSCE and we can have wonderful trade relationships with allies in other organisations that are not the EU.
Because we're NOT giving veto power over our eurolives to Saskatchewan.
Canada simps can spend time and resources on getting the 10 EU statelets that haven't ratified CETA yet to do it.

Exciting announcement!
We created a new YouTube channel, and I'm one of the hosts!
We decided to make a series out of responding to comments on the @EUCommission social media accounts.It would really help me out if you hit that like button and leave a comment about what subject we should do next (if commenting on YT is your jam, that is.)
you can watch it here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgpWMZZg50w&list=TLPQMDkwNTIwMjYd8JjSIgTYBQ&index=1@hpod16 wow, already 2,6k followers on Mastodon... did you know https://mastometrics.com or https://www.analytodon.com for account analytics?

@Peperlito
No worries!If you want to suggest topics for new videos, I'll always be posting these on my Mastodon account too. and I can consider those comments too, when we come to picking the next video topic! (although we already have one in the pipeline I am sure the Mastodon folks will LOVE)
@hpod16 I’m in competition law (I often work with your colleagues of DG Comp) so I’d love to see a related topic ^^
Competition policy and articles 101 and 102 are vital to provide an entrepreneur economy useful to consumers and businesses, instead of a rent economy, it’s redistributive and innovative.A recent case, new and catchy, is ‘Food delivery services’, regarding labor markets. Two merging companies had concluded no-poach agreements, forbidding to hire each-others employees in Europe (mainly Germany, Spain and Portugal as I remember). The Commission sanctioned it, favoring mobility and wage raises… A good case to illustrate the competition policy on, I think…

@Peperlito if we cover competition law… I’m gonna need a lot of help from the colleagues in DG Comp. But it is a very interesting subject!

@Peperlito thanks for the suggestion about that case though that looks really interesting!

PeerTube needed
There's no shame in using European tech. #plus1 #fedifirst

Would help if some of these comments were on YouTube
We’ve got some bets going in the team about how many views we’ll have by Monday so I’m trying to push the vids a little more

@rozeboosje I haven't had a google account in almost a decade, I had no idea you needed one to comment on YT, but of course, lol.
@hpod16 I love you, but I'm not farming content for them. I learnt something you might find interesting in this convo started by the CNES CM who's asked her bosses if they can get Peertube or at least mirror it (easy?). Some Mastodon users even filter out posts w/YT links. I'm lazy/lowtech, I just put the songs in odesli to ditch the ads. -

That’s absolutely fair
Was worth a try though.If I just share the YT clips here you can still watch em though, right?

@hpod16 Yes, the only filters I have are text-based. My Oubliette is vast and focused on keeping out anglo content, but it doesn't work for videos.

I will look into it but no promises
This was conceived as a dedicated YouTube project, and we brought people in who are YouTubers, etc.
pS: dumb question time: what’s the difference between having a peer tube account and just uploading videos on the mastodon server you/I already have? Are there technical aspects to it? -

@rozeboosje No idea, but I see various people upthread have mentioned it, thosw who talk about mirroring it sound like they might know? @hpod16 I think you can also ask @peertube ? Coucou @peertube

@dapper_11 @hpod16 @ui3o I think a
European alternative like PeerTube will be just fine. #plus1 #fedifirst -

I haven’t seen any comparisons, but my guess is that large videos are better with Peertube, while smaller ones work well on Mastodon.
There is also a huge difference in how the interface works. Peertube works like a video service, where I can browse a channel’s videos easily. On Mastodon the video is always secondary.

@fasnix
Maybe one day, but for now it's really a dedicated YouTube thing. I have a bit more work to do to figure out how to use Peer Tube -
