The large majority of open source tools that are used in mass have significant commercial backing.
Yes many users could make more money from patron only. Very few do in the tall world. Their primary source of income is YT. Because people don’t use the patrons.
You can have a diverse community that has a large majority opinion. And what I said is certainly the prevailing opinion.
And to answer you about your personal view: You are stealing the right to distribution and taking money away from both corporations but more importantly creators. And I’ve seen the rates of direct donations eg patrons . It’s not ideological for most people, it’s about getting content for free.
Are you donating to every channel you are watching? I doubt it. Even the people who care mostly only donate directly to one of two top patrons, while still consuming many many more.
If you are actually donating, then good for you, I congratulate you for living what you preach and have zero qualms. But you would be a statistical edge case.
Oh right, in the magical world where people are giving their money away. The majority of content creators would of left your platform. But it’s okay it’s easy to steal their right to distribution and handwave it away as not a problem.
Because you have not set up that agreement and the vast majority of people don’t pay outside of ads or a singular monthly sub.
The next best thing is nebula which has 600,000 monthly subs at $5. Which means a maximum payout pool of 18M a year.
Look at the number of users vs donations. The only reason this place works is low traffic and low bandwidth. The vision you describe would be great but it’s not going to happen. ESPECIALLY once users are forced to pay rather than getting shit for free.

“Paying for the service? Fuck that” - Also lemmy and Reddit.
If the people can’t complete the job is already gone. People will move on into new roles.
🤷♂️ people are going to take the path of least resistance
Yes. The prompt asking you if you wanted to do it or not would come up next. Unless they figured out some sneaky way to do something to avoid using admin.
Thank you for so brilliantly driving my point home. You just completely ignored when I said we should strive to reduce the risk and have completely ignored that death via vehicle accident is 800 times more likely to happen.
I honestly couldn’t have proven my point better.
Nobody needs a gun for school. And the risk from school shootings is vastly overblown. I’m not saying we shouldn’t try to minimize the risk, but the people living in fear of this are victims of mass media frenzy and poor risk assessment.
The latter is true but the rest is bunk.
Don’t get me started on this shit. The privacy people are well.
Oh I’m sure the person running this instance from his basement is going to handle my gdpr request better than Meta 🙄 definitely can’t pull down a hash table from the db with zero accountability
Yes it was. What crack are you on? From day 2, the second that shit was made public to college students it was HAMMERED into everyone’s head that shit would be public. The boomers on Fox News knew this shit was public.
The point is they won’t. In figuring will continue over every fucking little thing THE VEGANS ARE CRAZY SO BAN THEM
Already is. Forums with extra steps unfortunately.
Lololol I didn’t think everyone here had thought through this lololol. You are wildly optimistic.
Everyone screaming left and right about employeer and school admissions scanning the site.
You all realize this same shit is happening here right?
It’s a public forum 🤦♂️
I don’t get ads. I pay 🤷♂️.
Did you just seriously try to compare China factories to Tesla? This place really is just an absurd bubble.
For reference in Mexico they are making 5k a year vs 50k. I’m sure it’s rainbows and kittens over at byd.
