I never thought YouTube’s business model was very sustainable. As the world economy goes down, so does the value of ads. Creators or consumers need to pay up for all the bandwidth and storage. The question is about what is a reasonable price. Are low tiers for $3/mo. possible along with premium 4k options or does everything need to be at more than that?
That some will use the same username which can then be found on OnlyFans is fine. What is not fine is the way it works on FetLife. Women make a low quality post how incredibly horny they are, it gets upvoted and the whole ploy is to redirect you to their business. Primarily rules need to be focused to disable that.
I have very low trust into Ubisoft and this one as well, because so many employees left. They will likely fall into their management dictated formulaic open world devoid of creative decisions.
No, it isn’t, because of resilience. reddit as a gigantic instance would take out a lot, but the whole ecosystem of UI, clients etc. would have stayed identical. It would be a much softer switch. Shutdowns of large instances are an issue and lemmy’s user history is not portable (hopefully it will be). This has better future prospects.
There is a good chance users will flock to the biggest one and we won’t have the doubling issue.
I like it in general and think it has a chance to stay, however I feel it needs a bunch more work than Mastodon, which works close to a full release, except the oddity the Elk Alpha client doesn’t have a report button, but is better than the default.
The HDD cartel can only be stopped with an international crackdown, with raids and laws. They constantly do shady stuff as the coordinated SMR scam.
Yeah no, had trouble loading many pages today.
False information and claim that these are connected and not coincidental.
Because it is a hot topic.
I believe in the long run there will be a focus on development for better, customizable, algorithmic discoverability, because as much as the Silicon Valleys algorithms are harmful, there are still benefits to them. For example I had to mute some interesting accounts, because their posting frequency floods my timeline. Hopefully it won’t be necessary in the future.
