It happens to us all to have good ideas but unfortunately we don't always have the time or the ability to realize them...

Instead of these ideas getting lost or dying we can share them and maybe they will be heard by someone in the free software community who is in need of inspiration but has the time and ability to realize them. 🤞

You can also share your idea and ask if people in the community are interested in helping you make it happen.

A site that shows the video feeds from multiple news channels (lemmy.world)

Lots of news channels post their video feed online, for free, legally.

Pulling up each feed is a pain, and I don't actually want to watch all of them: I just want to see, at a glance, what each network/channel/outlet is covering, so I can get a sense of what the big story of the day is.

The feeds would all have to be on mute, obviously.

Some video feeds that could be included:

And these are just streams that are posted legally. If anyone wanted to incorporate pirate streams, we could add a TON.

Alternately: If displaying a ton of live feeds is too taxing on a processor, it could just show a collage of screenshots from each feed, updated every 60 seconds. That would be easier for processing, and it might sidestep any legal issues.
