@andrew@tictoc.social

I am the owner and administrator of tictoc.social, and I really like Mastodon's freedom.

I live in Perth, Western Australia. 🇭🇲

I love travelling and taking photos.

I'm a technology nerd. Everything about #technology fascinates me.

This video attached below has been taken down from my YouTube channel and I got a 2 week ban. This is what they say, and why they banned it.
I have now setup my own video server.

"Our team has reviewed your content, and, unfortunately, we think it violates our harmful and dangerous policy. We've removed the following content from YouTube"

How your content violated the policy

Content that shows viewers how to gain unauthorized free access to audio content, audiovisual content, full video games, software, or streaming services that normally require payment is not allowed. This policy applies to videos, video descriptions, comments, live streams, and any other YouTube product or feature. Keep in mind this list is not comprehensive.

Here is the video, please let me know your thoughts. I really don't believe I was telling anyone how to get free services. I was just explaining how to install and use Kodi, a legal media center that has been around for years.

Does anyone know of a good YouTube replacement that is decentralized that will allow video uploads. I want to move my video channel away from Youtube.

Just had the most amazing night out with some great friends at Rockpool! The food was absolutely incredible, and the drinks were flowing all night long. We laughed, chatted, and had an all-around fantastic time. Huge shoutout to our awesome friends for making it a night to remember. Can't wait to do it again soon! #Rockpool #NightOutWithFriends #Foodie #GoodTimes

andrew,

@Quokka Yeah, we go there a bit, it's great.

andrew,

@Quokka We haven't been to the Pav, might have to check it out. Yeah the Bar menu at Rockpool is great.We normally just rock in without a booking and sit in the bar area. Last night we went all out and had the restaurant menu. Food was great.

The whole reason for each of us boosting content here in the #fediverse is that each of us is our own algorithm. We are doing for #mastodon what the algorithms do for all other social media: designing what everyone will see. The Federated flow is pure, literally unadulterated content, unadulterated by any algorithms other than the people posting.

Facebook and Instagram were tedious before-a trudge through more ads than anything else. #Twitter was a gladiatorial hellhole. They all pale that much more in comparison now. They are how social media USED to be.

The Fediverse is how social media must be.

For starters, let's refuse to ever let any private interest of any kind either own or control it. This information crossroads must remain a public utility, run by the people for the people.

May the Fediverse live long and prosper. #fediverse #mastodon

I thought it was time I did an #introduction post.

I'm @andrew, the host and creator of #tictocsocial. I set up this instance because I’m fed up with the "big boys" of the social media world manipulating and controlling what they want me to see. I've had enough of my personal information being used for financial gain.

I live in, Western Australia. I'm married with one daughter, and two grandchildren.
I love to travel. I take lots of photos of our experiences, and I will be posting them here.
