Jeff should consider hosting on Peertube and keeping his Patreon active. He's awesome and more than capable, I'd mirror him in a hot second.
He's on float plane. I think he's trying to make a living, so I'd assume YouTube ad revenue is a factor

It's pretty harmful to Googles cloud business.

I'll never support anyone on that platform. I'll never do anything to give LTT a cent.

Flotplane is a decent enough alternative. They keep gutting YouTube's ad-rev, sooner or later, something will have to give.

Yeah I remember once when my friends Synology started acting harmful when he run jellyfin on it. it started off gasing mustard gas. It poisoned the well and made his son addicted to zyns. All of the cars in his neighborhood needed new batteries. The country's GTP dropped a lot that month and the ozone layer is gone. Thank God YouTube stopped platforming such harmful content. Too bad so luch damage has already been done.

Saw the video… It mentions ”ripping” and even shows clips of some blockbuster movies. No wonder any copyright-sensitive automation gets triggered pretty fast. This will only get worse.
Pretty fast? The video was uploaded in 2024.

I think you might be misremembering; the original iPhone had YouTube, maps (though it lacked a GPS for whatever reason), a camera, Safari, and even a primitive HTML based App Store that paved the way for modern PWAs. Games like Bejeweled were available months before iOS 2.0 came with the App Store.
The Moto ROKR was an iPod that made calls.

”Pretty fast” after they tuned those automations to the current setting. And they will keep turning it that way unfortunately.

Yeah I'm not big on LTT either, I'd like to see him on Nebula. The price is reasonable and they have some really good high quality content.

Who would win:
- A 2 trillion dollar multinational technology company
- Some guy's hobby project

What if I decide to digitize my entire movie catalog? I would have to rip those DVDs and blurays...

wrote last edited by [email protected]Google has been mask off since they removed "don't be evil" as their slogan, and they've been proving it ever since. Apparently people don't pay attention!

I seem to remember Jeff explaining his choice, and a big factor was that Nebula doesn't have comments under videos, nor any other similar forums for video posters and watchers to chat. I think he said he wouldn't be happy without that direct interaction.

I think if the ripping includes de-DRM-ing it's is illegal in a lot of countries. I am not saying it's right, we should own our own content, I am just saying it as a fact.

What they did to you?

Would YOU download an API call?
Would you create an api to download an API call?

Yeah. That's illegal in lots of countries.
