A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Whelp, here's a toast to the future where the creators we enjoy can be supported through a more federated system.
I don't think there's any way to beat YouTube's infrastructure right now, and you can't even replicate it without a steady supply of blank checks.
Any geniuses out there know how to think of a system design that's FOSS, competes with YT's pay structure, and who knows what's the best supply for that pay? I hate advertisements.
How do we take the money that we already spend for subscription services and funnel that into some kind of pool to be equitably distributed to content creators?
