Redgifs appears to be lewd NSFW content only. Do they allow other content?

Some of the videos are on Reddit, Twitter, or Instagram. They don't work well when shared elsewhere.

I want to download the video and reupload it in a better place

YouTube does not feel appropriate since it is not my content.

Thank you, can you make a post or comment in the community so I can add you?

I see, we can focus on the community then and push for an instance if it becomes more appropriate in the future

!bangladesh@lemmy.world

I requested the community with this message:

I want to create a space for r/Bangladesh. The government in the country has shut down the internet and I want to make decentralized options more accessible for them. I plan to see if the moderators want to join here too. If a good community forms, I am happy to hand off the moderator role.

I am not in Bangladesh, and I can't read Bengali without translation tools. I'll love to have other people helping with content and moderation. If you are interested, let me know.

It is difficult to self host in Bangladesh but my hope is that this community will end up creating an instance there. After this community is running, I will reach out to people on other websites.

@Safipok@lemmy.ml if you are still around, I'd be pleased to add you as a moderator

What self-hosted services can help during a crisis or emergency? This is for those affected OR those who want to help in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

I am curious too. It has been hard to get much information out between the internet shutdown, the language barrier, and the lack of press freedoms. I will post a link if I find anything!

Excellent answer!

Does someone have a good guide? The guides I find are a few years old. I will relay this to them in the meantime

This was posted on the other site. It can be found below on this post.

They talk about how even Jellyfin & Jitsi were valuable for dealing with government's actions in shutting down the internet. Does anything else come to mind? In addition to giving advice, can we host anything to help people in this kind of situation?

Suddenly our Self Hosted application became more than just hobby.

If you already don't know, Bangladesh was disconnected from the internet for majority of the last week due to government order. It was shut down without any warning. We were put under curfew 24/7, so no leaving home.

On the second day of curfew, me, with nothing to do, figured the intranet in our country still worked. So I opened my Jellyfin service up and gave access to my immediate family and friends. Then we had people stepping up. One opened a simple chat application. Believe me, I never felt happier reading messages from a bunch of random people on the internet. Once people started communicating it only got better. We had a jitsi meet up and running within a few hours. People opened up their media library. Last couple of days, I almost didn't miss the traditional internet.

I have to thank you guys for all the encouragement. Also I do have a few questions for you guys.

I'm fearing this will not be the last time we will be blocked from the world. What can we do to make things even better next time? One major problem was TLS CERTS stopped working. So the communication was in http using IP address

What are some apps to host if the same situation to arise again?

Sorry for the bad English, not my first language.
