So what would be a good solution to this? What is something simple that bots are bad at but humans are good at it?

I was just messing with the settings and this is what worked for me...

In Heliboard settings:

  • Set the language to your native language.
    You may have to download and add the dictionary for your native language. For my native language it was missing, so it asked me to add it.
  • Turn on the multilingual typing option for English.

In system settings:

Go to Spell Checker settings (you can search that term in system settings, for me it was in Languages & Input > Tools category > Spell Checker)

  • You want to enable the spell checker if it isn't already.
  • Set languages to your native language.
  • Set the default spell checker to Heliboard.

I was just reading this issue on Github last night and I really don't see how PeerTube is any better than a traditional server for hosting videos. The peer part of it seems to have such a miniscule impact on the whole thing that it just feels like a gimmick. I've read that the biggest problem for PeerTube instance hosts is storage and not the bandwidth. The only thing that peers can save you is tiny bit of bandwidth from what I understand.

So from what I've gathered, relying on peers only for hosting the video is completely unviable. And that makes sense, especially for old, unpopular videos, there will be no peers to begin with. Even if every video on the site is being "seeded" by viewers, the reliability of connection and bandwidth would be very bad because you can't know if the peer is some guy on the dial up connection. Even in the perfect scenario where everyone had very reliable connection and good bandwidth, the fact that browsers don't support p2p protocol and rely on a hack/workaround to use it, will mean that there will be delays. So starting the video and rewinding would be painfully slow.

Is there something that I'm missing, or is PeerTube really not that much better than a "normal" video hosting server?

Everything else requires effort.

Yeah it is visible, but much more subtle than on your original picture in the post.

Easier to see against the black background:

Maybe it's just a temporary image retention? Was there something (bright or white) previously at that section of the screen? Like some app that you use often?

OLED burn-in maybe?

I think the only way to show the icon on the status bar with tasker is using the notification (notify task) and giving it an icon.

     Profile: Detect Auto-rotation setting change
    	Event: Custom Setting [ Type:System Name:accelerometer_rotation Value:* ]
    
    
    
    Enter Task: Un-notify if autorotate off
    
    A1: Custom Setting [
         Type: System
         Name: accelerometer_rotation
         Read Setting To: %arstat ]
    
    A2: Notify Cancel [
         Title: ar ]
        If  [ %arstat ~ 0 ]
    
    A3: Notify [
         Title: ar
         Icon: mw_device_screen_rotation
         Number: 0
         Priority: 3
         LED Colour: Red
         LED Rate: 0 ]
        If  [ %arstat ~ 1 ]
    
       

You can set the notification to silent.

It works for me.
There is this site which has detailed status report, but to be honest I don't really know how to interpret all of that haha.

There is currently some error though:

I also needed that feature recently and I found out that there was an option for 180° rotation that I needed to toggle on. But this is most likely specific to the ROM that I'm using.
