If anyone else has noticed the delay of videos being posted from #bcon23 on the official #peertube instance, not to worry, they are still encoding, but unfortunately not being published as quickly as hoped.
All the videos are being mirrored, and available, though not fully transcoded, on the #bcon23 playlist here:
https://video.blender.org/w/p/tJNAU76DL5Vs1M6niWksPE
Go watch them there, hot and fresh😀

•Thanks! 5h ago I tried to watch this one https://video.blender.org/w/2YhUCCrwDb8W8q9cGDwbBX ; but had the message "failed video/technical issue" and dark overlay. I went on Youtube after that. I had a quick check: the video is still like that on my side. No problem but I wanted just to report. Good luck to the server to process all these long videos!

•@davidrevoy yes, it's a bit unfortunate, hopefully in the future the instance might be able to use the new features of #peertube which allow off-loading some of the encoding to other machines.
I really hope that the #blender community will begin to embrace these alternatives, as we do with #Linux, the #Fediverse for example. Currently, it is not perfect, but unless we support them, they will never be mature.
Come to think of it, Blender is the post child for this mindset😀
