A Mastodon instance for people interested in multimedia, codecs, encoding, decoding, assembly, SIMD and other related areas.
Full-text search enabled. Char limit: 2048. That's eleven bits. For higher quality and less banding.
There's a public Matrix chat lobby for this instance on #lobby:pars.ee. Feel free to join even if you're not part of this instance.
Media content not transcoded: H.264, VP9, AV1, AAC, MP3, Opus, and FLAC. 8-bit only, 420, 422, 444, or gbrp. All can be contained in standard ISOBMFF. Patches can be found here.

Rules:

• Do not harass or attack people. Racism, misogyny, *phobia and similar are completely out.
• Do not spam.
• Do not post anything illegal. Posting loli is. Posting patents or leaked specification documents isn't.
• Do not block any users who have not interacted with you directly by either CCing you, replying to you or boosting you. Faves do not count as interations.
• NSFW: must be tagged as such, but do not post porn, do it elsewhere.
• Do not embarrass yourselves or say something you'll possibly regret in the future. Use common sense.
• Try to be kind to people. They've probably had a worse day than you have.
• Weeb: optional, but occasionally unavoidable.
• Unironically liking Touhou is highly unnecessary.
