Just gonna copy paste what I told the other guy:

I understand that and completely agree, but comparing taxonomical categories with common categorizations such as "fish" is also missing a big point. You can make better comparisons to get people to understand that taxonomy is made up and not reliable to follow religiously, barely even works as a guideline

No??? They're mammals, where did you pull this information out of?

As a person who uses stremio; not only is it not more of a hassle than streaming services, it's WAY less. Astronomically so. You set it up once and you have literally everything

I thought this was satire at first, damn why am I so optimistic

Yeah the monetization is what brought this downfall in the first place. It's definitely not the same as AI, it's sharing pre-existing work and unlike most platforms, with credit directly to the artist's socials or webstores and was especially good for fashion designers and artist-sellers (though that also started going downhill since it got overtaken by dropshippers). I looked up online and found alternatives already such as cosmos.so which includes user owned media, not just reposting, but my issue came with then protecting said media from being scraped by AI en masse

If it's a lost cause for Americans it rly ain't any better anywhere else considering how many companies are owned by them :'))) if you guys can't stop them, there's no way someone from a bumfuck country like myself could do anything about it besides informing myself and rejecting it as much as I can
