    Nebula seems to have figured this out.

    Same with Peer Tube.

    Plenty of ways to run a business or online service or productive enterprise that are not ‘be a shareholder profit driven advertisment company’, just takes a bit of … economic imagination.

      Fair enough, hopefully they can scale up.

      I don’t see the difference in paying for nebula and paying for YouTube though

        My whole point here, this whole hill that I have been dying on, is that mass advertisement targeted at people with algorithmic precision is the problem, because its a worst case scenario combination of pushing regressive / fascist propoganda whilst also enriching megacorporations.

        But your take away was apparently that I was saying something like ‘companies should just provide services/products for free and then just go bankrupt’ … ???
