    Yeah I remember once when my friends Synology started acting harmful when he run jellyfin on it. it started off gasing mustard gas. It poisoned the well and made his son addicted to zyns. All of the cars in his neighborhood needed new batteries. The country’s GTP dropped a lot that month and the ozone layer is gone. Thank God YouTube stopped platforming such harmful content. Too bad so luch damage has already been done.

    Jeff should consider hosting on Peertube and keeping his Patreon active. He’s awesome and more than capable, I’d mirror him in a hot second.

      He’s on float plane. I think he’s trying to make a living, so I’d assume YouTube ad revenue is a factor

        I’ll never support anyone on that platform. I’ll never do anything to give LTT a cent.

          Yeah I’m not big on LTT either, I’d like to see him on Nebula. The price is reasonable and they have some really good high quality content.

            I seem to remember Jeff explaining his choice, and a big factor was that Nebula doesn’t have comments under videos, nor any other similar forums for video posters and watchers to chat. I think he said he wouldn’t be happy without that direct interaction.

              I admit I don’t watch every video, I’m subscribed but I just kind of let videos come to my home feed and watch that way. I mainly use YT as background noise while doing something else.

              His reasoning makes sense, so I guess I’ll just continue to watch on YT since I have no desire to join FP. Thanks for the info!

                  I see, you mean this, I thought there is something new. Thank you for sharing. What I didn’t like about Luise’s contribution to this drama is that he focused solely on LTT’s side and didn’t mention the other side. Because I think both sides made some mistakes.

        Flotplane is a decent enough alternative. They keep gutting YouTube’s ad-rev, sooner or later, something will have to give.

      Yes cause they can’t sell you a subscription for your mp3 player.

      Fucking rent seeking behaviour from corporate parasites.

          Costco bought RAC in a stunning buyout in 2437 after Costco’s CEO Harambe Memelord Disney Jr. offered RAC’s CEO Squiggy John John John John Johnson a 2-for 1 deluxe latte coupon and an extra big-ass fry.

      MP3 players aren’t bad, they’re just mostly obsolete when smartphones can do the same thing and we mostly already have one.

      I like to keep several GB of music on my phone from my MP3 library, and I have no streaming music accounts. I pay once for my music at most.

        There is a subsection of mp3 players that have enough power to drive high impedance headphones, Hifi players, some call them. They still make decent sales to their customer base of particular people.

      Google has been mask off since they removed “don’t be evil” as their slogan, and they’ve been proving it ever since. Apparently people don’t pay attention!
