i dont think that would work at all though, im willing to pay, im not willing to seed

Well you wouldn't seed then lol

Some people would

Some people would make their own social media host

its convoluted

It's seemless to most users

if the creator is in any way depending on seeders it's pointless. a seed is a drop in the ocean

youd have 1000 views for every seed

The creator relies on paying for hosting at first

if that

the creator can and should simply continue to pay for hosting

Sure. But the seeding is also an option

its not worth implementing

🤷

I feel like it would be at some point

it doesnt solve the problem

The problem is centralized servers

no it isnt

To me it is

the problem is offering a free service to users and creators at the same time

Well that's your problem lol

its not my problem, it's the platform's

Yeah, I guess sure. It's just not the problem I was solving lol

So quit your yammering and keep watching jewtube

<:sargoy:382978736053551104>

the problem you should be solving is youtube's lack of profitability
thats the only reason they maintain their monopoly

there is no other problem

Did you forget about the card companies forcing them to behave the way they do?

Or the hosting companies banning bitchute?

just use a Russian payment processor, camrode

those are wholly seperate monopolies which need competition so that their business tactics fail

but those companies are already profitable -- it is no issue for a based host or processor to take all their customers

What?

literally just that

anyone can set up a server farm and make money

There are no 'based processors'.

There's just Visa/Mastercard

SubscribeStar has based Russian payment processor, camrode

Let's see how long that lasts before it's yeeted by the FTC or something

Or Visa/Mastercard just prevents people from using them

then we'll just have to see, but, its been a minute, so far

No matter what, at some point along the chain, you have to go through a card processor
