I’ve learned one thing in my time on the internet.
If there is a will, there is a way and yo ho fiddle dee dee they sure will find it.

It’s a matter of finding where the line between cost and user satisfaction meet.
Like sure you could limit all videos to 60fps @ 720p or 30fps @ 1080p but most everyone now wants everything 120fps @ 2160p which takes up dozens of gigs per video and eats up bandwidth.
I think a big part of that is just straight up storage space, more specially a lack thereof. Google won’t release specifics but estimates put the total data stored by YouTube at somewhere near an exabyte (1 million terrabytes). Most of which is made up by video files.
Of course that’s just issue number 1 of many to figure out.
Yea peertube is rough… Mostly in part due to, in my opinion at least, people wanting to make use of YouTube’s ad revenue system even tho most creators I watch making most of their income via donations rather than ad revenue.
It’s understandable in the end. I do feel the same way sometimes about our equipment we have to throw out even if I do so begrudgingly
I can agree with both points but I understand Viking’s points too.
I work with high pressure hydraulic systems and our gauges that we use for testing and operational checks have to be calibrated to within a very small margin per the manufacturer, if it’s unable to be calibrated to within that margin or if it’s been recalibrated X amount of times we have to toss it and replace it (they’re expensive btw…). To the lay man, a difference of 50psi might seem inconsequential and a stupid reason to throw it out but for someone like me who is standing next to something that’s already pressurized to its “proof pressure” which is usually multiple times higher than it’s operating pressure, that 50psi is the difference between me going home that evening or me getting impaled by an accumulator that blows apart and pins me to the wall.
For an example more akin to what Viking is talking about, see the Therac-25 radiotherapy machine, where improper use, training and maintenance led to several otherwise preventable deaths.

Yea I can’t logically understand how an influencer even gets their content seen on Meta’s platforms given how it’s algorithm just pukes random shit at you 24/7 with no rhyme or reason.
Iirc Meta, X and some other platform I can’t think of did a similar thing with popular streamers and YouTubers trying to get them to post to their platforms. Most of them told Meta and X to screw off.
Yea id either get what I wanted to see which was essentially just shit posting and wood working videos or, more usually the case, it would be nothing but Ben Shapiro, Joe Rogan and half baked conspiracy videos taking about DEW and wildfires.
