RE: "Amazing Grace" (Hymn, Public Domain) for post coming tomorrow in Q-Inspired

in Q Inspired-by-Music • last year

Ah ok, now I think I understand you. Am quite slow tonight, so it seems 😂
You could upload to Q, the video I mean, when a little later you add the writeup, PLease make a note for this at the top of the post, or in the post title. We have to accommodate for the missing feature on 3Speak to allow unposted uploads.
The reason for asking this is that I like to prevent others from taking such posts as okay for Q. Personally I like a video to be 1 time on someone's timeline and perhaps is also what you like. When such reasons, therefore the need for a single post, this suggested approach.

Sort:  

I understand and will make a note ... we must protect the community standards, of course.

Here is the main post in question that the video is in, hot off the presses -- https://peakd.com/hive-192806/@deeanndmathews/the-autumn-journey-upward-carried-by-amazing-grace-reasons-illustrated-by-haydns-rollend-in-schaumenden-wellen-with-a-sweet

WOW! That is massive, again!

Just checked your Blog and Post channels.
Why don't you update the text part of the 3Speak video post? Or add the text while preparing the upload of the video? The latter I did whenever I used 3Speak, but this is by now some time ago I used that service. The benefit of this approach: a single post.
When for some reason you like to continue uploading the video in a separate post and use that video to bring your (extensive) stories, please upload the video somewhere outside the Q community. I suppose you may use one of the other music communities with less 'strict' rules on writeups for that.
NJOY today and this coming weekend.

Simple reason: PeakD has drafts, and 3Speak does not. It takes several days to do a long post like that, and that only works in PeakD because PeakD lets me save drafts. I am already started on the next post because of PeakD' capabilities -- there is no way to do that in 3Speak.

I circumvent such problems with UIs and drafting of posts by using a local installation of a markdown editor. Plenty of such editors are available with the benefit that one doesn't have to have an Internet connection when writing. Perfect for some writing in nature or something ;) I have used a local installation of MacDown editor for the last 7 years or so and still continue to use that one. This is for MacBook/Apple. Never tried one for Windows systems, but plenty of them around.

Also, you could consider drafting in PeakD, and copy/paste into 3Speak when preparing the video upload, and when done so, remove the draft from PeakD ;) I know, some of the markdown is different in 3Speak to PeakD, but that can be avoided when getting to know what works and what doesn't work.

I did not know all that was possible -- thank you for the new options!

Let me know when you have questions, I maybe of support somehow.

A screenshot of my MacDown editor, it has this WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) screen. Not 100% correct with how PeakD shows (eg space between title and text is different), but none of the HIVE UIs are showing these types of things exactly the same anyway. After some time working with such an editor and WYSIWYG screen, the differences between this editor and HiveBlog, Ecency, PeakD, Leo are easy to work with.
