I want to like it but they refuse to open up the platform still after Twitter keeps handing them opportunity after opportunity and I’m afraid their chances to succeed are going to wane.

Okay this is a genuinely good move from them. Unfortunately nobody I know really owns modern Xboxes anymore, but I hope the rpessure forces Sony to consider the same.

Looks like we’ll be at our Expanse style dystopia sooner than expected!

Twelve years on reddit and just about as long using reddit is fun, but now I’m gone.

We’re having such a great time… 🫠 🫠 🫠 🫠

It seems like we’re genuinely at the ceiling for this stuff which might actually be a huge benefit and slow down the horrendous e-waste cycle we’ve perpetuated.

Important distinction, thanks for clarifying because I always forget!

Oh sure, I agree with you there. For video I don’t see how you can get away from a deeply capital-influenced project because it still requires such tremendous resource scaling.

Are you familiar with peertube? I’m not suggesting it’s going to replace YouTube but it’s kind of neat that there’s at least one open source platform that you can self host video on. But I agree, the scale issue is huge. All I can foresee is a world where we have a lot of different little sites. Not sure if that’s better but YouTube has a total stranglehold.
