Voice Recording Mafia - Interest?

Yeah seems fine to me. You’d all get to see my fish or smthg

YouTube mobile uploader suckkkkkkkkssssss

From experience

wait what sucks about. i tried earlier and seemed fine.

Video costs a fortune in mobile data compared to audio. For me at least, idk if that affects people in different areas (who might only want to watch on wifi/have unlimited or cheap data/etc)

maybe hosting audio files externally?

https://clyp.it/ : haven’t tried it - free version is limited to 360 minutes and requires account, but you can record directly to the website

https://vocaroo.com/ : recordings are saved for an unknown amount of time, they say potentially a few months, recording onsite doesn’t seem to be available on my phone due to unsupported plugin so it might just go back to “where tf does my phone save my recordings”

I just picked the top two google results so other people might know of better-suited options.

clyp.it works reasonably well from experience

going to a website feels like a lot of work.

just have everyone do voice to text and dont allow us to edit typos and lets see what hilarity ensues

would it be possible for the recording to be limited to the thread so that people don’t get confused

can you reword this, not sure what you mean

I was going that route because you were talking youtube hosting, using an external website for audio would have pretty much the same process

hmm.

I guess hitting youtube app button vs. going to whatever browser and going to a link seemed to be significantly less work.

I’ll see if those onebox here.

the recording option is only in threads where it is verified to be in the thread
meaning it is not in every thread

whats wrong with letting people record everywhere if we implement that.
it’s sorta like how we have the votecount button everywhere.

ok

BUMP

we’re actually going to try this
would people prefer

1: posting video + audio (through youtube)
2: posting just audio (through something tbd)

I would join audio

I would join actually I think video might be optimal.

In summer though , not soon

I don’t think I like video
