        Youtube is a little better but not much. It has enough of a monopoly position already.

        Sadly the world still hasnt adopted modern IPv6 standards, because those would make livestream platforms something anyone can run for cheap by using multicasting. Then you would only need to connect a chat system to it but thats comparably lightweight.

    I wonder if it’s less ‘looking out for each other,’ and more of a ‘the only enemy I have to fear is myself.’ Musk is powerful right now, don’t fool yourself. He’s got the backing of a fucking government, after all. He also has, just like all the other ‘rich,’ the resources to bring an endless parade of lawsuits against you, and fund them all the way through, like what happened with hulk hogan being funded by thiel. Where the rich have no fear against the criminal law (they’re protected behind corporate responsibility and thus fines[lol!]), or the lawsuits of peasants who will run out of money after a year at most, other rich have weapons against them.
