Why is this on the self hosting community

Ideally the solution would be finding alternatives for creators to make money, sponsorships is one, they can make money on those no matter the platform and where they get viewers, same with support platforms like patreon and kofi.

The goal would be to watch videos there so creators have a reason to cross post and then support them in other ways, if possible, mentioning peertube as the avenue you watched them.

Cross posting to a peertube instance should be pretty light weight for creators and we should encourage it.

The tough part about something like Friendica is that it’s usefulness very dependent on how many of your friends are on it. You’d need a group of friends to all join together for it to stick.

God damn it, of all the garbage people to quote, why did it have to be LaRouche

No thank you.

For me, I hate the influencer culture around many of these things. On paper, loops, and the like, are good ideas, but when you fill it with people with MBAs trying to sell you things, it feels fake and goes to shit. My experience so far with the fediverse is that it feels generally organic and I have no reason to believe loops would be any different.

Capitalism

No thank you.

Make your platform so bad in the interest of shareholders so no one wants to use your platform anymore. It’s a story as old as capitalism.
