No, offering them more money to remove those obstacles sends the wrong message. It would literally save them money to leave it out, so in what world would that entitle them to more of your money or mine?
That's what I wrote.
Looks like you and I both meant to respond to this other comment by @GenderNeutralBro@lemmy.sdf.org : https://discuss.tchncs.de/comment/9293054 https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/9620373

... well shit. Anyone know how I can link a comment in an instance-agnostic way? Ridiculous that while all three of those links go to the same comment, the commenter I'm replying to can only really interact with one of them ... and why the hell does user tagging seem to be broken? I had to manually create that link.
AFAIK there's still no way to dynamically link to posts or comments on Lemmy. :( You can only link communities or users.
Anyway, totally agree. Being technically able to bypass DRM doesn't make it okay. I'm honestly not sure how to rip a Blu-ray on Linux anyway. I haven't looked into it in years so maybe it's easier now than I remember.
That might explain some insane replies I've seen in the past.
