I dislike the pricing structure. Their family plan indicates the true cost of YouTube premium. To me it indicates that for a single person plan, the price should be about 1/3-1/2 of its current price.

If it really came down to it and they continue the current pricing structure, they I'd begrudgingly pay. And don't get me wrong, I'd pay for it now if the price for an individual plan was more reasonable.

Comparing a person computer to another personal computer

I agree. I think what you describe is also seen in sponsor block.

People mark story telling videos mostly as filler content, so a beautiful 10 minute video is chopped down to only a minute or two and most of what makes the video great is removed.

Live music sets where people segment out the intro and outro to songs, so tracks are mashed together for a non-stop music experience, which I think misses the mark with live music.

I also find a lot of sponsor segments are done quite badly like the person who made them doesn't care or is in a rush. Eg. Today I came a sponsor segment that started 11 seconds too early. I only recognised it because it kicked in half way through a sentence.

Don't get me wrong, I still use the extension; I've just disabled most of the auto actions.

Many moons ago I tried Darrow for a day and got the same feeling as what your described. I decided the original video titles are superior and disabled the extension.

I was just curious about why 4 million plays is ~$20 and 1 million plays is less than a dollar.

Do you pay them any money to have the songs on the platforms?

If not, I wonder if they charge you a fee but only deduct their fee from your earnings. So if you don't get plays then they don't ask for money. And the break even point is at around 1 million plays. Just a theory of course; I'm sure it's all stated in the fine print.

Based on your numbers, ~260k plays per dollar. The person in the submission would have to get ~2600 billion plays to get $10 million.

Something doesn't seem right with those numbers.

There are people on forums doing the same thing as the person in the submission. 1 person with ~30 phones can generate about 15-20k streams in a day doing it manually.

I've been curious about going alone on the Fedi but I've always been concerned about data storage. How much drive space do you think is required? I presume it accumulates over time.

Cost per month or year?

I still use Lemmy and Reddit side by side. I find a lot of submissions and comments on Reddit downvoted, where they're nothing burger contributions; some of the most non-divisive, non-offensive, and opinionless contributions I've come across.

I don't recall this behaviour when I first started using Reddit about 10 years ago. It makes me wonder if the world has become a lot more bitter in recent years since this type of behaviour is seen across platforms.

Nftables ables your NFTs 😂

By pasting content, I meant pasting images. I've just checked it and it doesn't do it yet. I often will take a screenshot but only copy the image because saving it pointless.

We need a NOVA replacement with how they've recently restructured the company. It looks like NOVA is getting squeezed for the last few cents they've got to offer by whom ever bought the company 1-2 years ago.

I've tried every other launcher I could find. In my opinion they all seemed to be minimalistic by design or they just lacked features.

Does the futo keyboard allow you to paste content yet?

I briefly used it but found the lack of content pasting too much of a hindrabce.

I find it weird that they upload content to their own servers even when you provide them with an external link.

Or they could just compression for their PNGs. PNG is a lossless format so they'll only lose a fraction of a second during creation.

uBlock and advert blocking DNS user: you have ads?

Just using uBlock is great if you only use a web browser that supports it.

Your method would annoy me because of having to log in to websites 'all of the time' instead of allowing at least some to have persistent logins. Losing website preferences would also be annoying.

It's not as far as I'm aware.

Like Linux, I don't want it to be the hobby; I just want to use it. If every website opened in it's only container then there is no care about cookies because they can't track you across the web, nor can they try to steal others.

I wonder what it would be like if there was a setting in Firefox that opened each website in it's own container without any faff. Firefox automatically creates the container for the website if it doesn't already exist and opens the website within it.
