I’ve been on nebula for a while now. A thing that I miss compared YouTube is the comment section.
It allows interaction between creators and viewers as well as amongst viewers themselves. I love picking up details in the comments about the video I’m watching or just watched.
The idea has been floating around for over 3 years on this now declining platform. https://www.reddit.com/r/watchnebula/comments/foqjt1/nebula_comment_section/
Given that Lemmy is decentralized, I can totally see the Nebula team integrating comments through a Lemmy instance.
What do do you all think?
I think comments would be a huge value add. Patreon already has them, the pay wall really seperates out most toxicity.
Even if it was opt in by creator, community building tools for the less technical Nebula creators could be a major selling point to get more similar brand creators to join.
I’d be okay if was even simply unfederated comments (or microblogging), which would likely be better for the creator, but I’d love threadiverse communities for more creators.
