Sadly the right is on the rise everywhere and not solely due to twitter, they just give it a more visible voice

Bearing in mind the community you're posting in I wouldn't think they were suggesting the big streaming companies.

Kodi + (insertname)debrid or stremio+ (insertname)debrid .... either will let you stream torrents in much better quality than the streaming sites and no need to horde.

Also, i'm fairly sure there's some torrent clients that allow streaming of the torrent file, I'm not sure if they're still around but I think Vuze was one, I don't used desktops any more just mobile/tablet so my knowledge might now be out of date.

Private healthcare has got this covered

To be honest I also think the same question in regards for GDPR and UK inbound legislation regarding porn and how those might affect the fediverse in general.

expect a return on their investment and they have the right to pressure spez to seek aggressive monetization of the platform.

Whilst I agree that investors have everybright to expect a return on investment I think this could have been resolved and a number of ways which didn't include alienating a large proportion of the user base.

Nurburgring was dropped from F1 for safety concerns,maybe it's time for the FIA to force change or drop.

Two deaths in 5 years at the same corner suggests a change is needed.

If they wanted an echo chamber they would have defederated from all other instances.

I'm sure they have a reason,whether it's the correct decision is another matter.

I've been using a variety of LibreTube and revanced on my phone and tablet as I only have mobile devices.

For the first time I opened a link which went to the native app, OMG it is unusable with ads.

If that's the expected way of using YouTube then I'm out, especially as I live in a location where I can't pay for Premium even if I wanted to

For what it's worth, I posted once on Reddit in the last year (and that was related to Sync shutting down) where as I've posted 4 times so far here.

I'm generally a lurker but perhaps the newness of it makes me feel that my posts won't be drowned out so it makes it more worthwhile taking the effort.

They don't really need to understand the concepts of an instance within the federation system because ultimately you join whatever instance you want and search and then you can subscribe to anything you want it doesn't matter whether it's a one entire instance or one tiny instance in the federation.
