Would you be okay with a porn website requiring a copy of your government identification and then turning your viewing data over to the government?
Do you trust the websites and government to not get breached or release data?
Or is this Mike Johnsons burner account and it’s not enough to know what porn his son is watching?
That sounds like a fun project.
If your opponent follows no rules and utilizes violence against all who they consider their enemies, pacifism is complicity.
Don’t forget to label them as “Bible cartoons and movies.”
SA is anti-LGBTQ. They will deny them services.
Go crawl wherever you want, just not on my lawn!
Because someone would be willing to do it for a bunch of people for $10/month each.
I appreciate this post. It’s brought out some interesting comments and I’ve been able to block some idiots who apparently think they’re gatekeepers.
I went through the same thing as you but when we moved to Emby, things have been better. Plex was always crashing when I’d search.
If you can get back with them, give Emby another shot.
I think self-hosted might be better but I don’t have the ambition right now. I’m reading up on it but I need to finish a couple of other projects first.
What’s a “life”? Is this something I’m too poor to understand?
I had Netflix and Hulu about 10 years ago and it was worth it. Then I dropped Netflix and got Prime. Dropped Prime and Hulu then did Disney+ bundle…that was good but now I sail the seas with friends. So much better. So many movies and shows I would have missed out on.
I went through the same thing with the share I was on.
Plex biting the hand that fed them. There’s no reason to use Plex over anything else at this point.
I pretty much do the same. I’ll check the recently added and see if something stands out to me, especially when it’s time for new TV seasons to start.
I use Lemmy and ad-blocked YouTube to hear about new things through the communities and channels that cover my interests.
Setting up all these lists, etc isn’t for me - I don’t always know what I’m going to enjoy so seeing everything being added to the Emby share I’m on is fun.
“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe.” - Unknown astronomer quoted by Fritz Perls in 1942
YouTube but use NewPipe or SmartTube. YouTube shares more revenue with streamers than Twitch.
I read your edit and thought “how bad could it be?”
I started reading the comments and it was way worse than I thought.
The most upvoted comments all display a great deal of “I only read 2 words of your original post” energy.
I didn’t bother with an adblocker until recently myself because I was okay with a couple of ads or mentioning sponsors.
Then, one day, the ads just multiplied on every video. It was that sudden for me. After a couple of days, I downloaded apps for my phone and TV and it’s been wonderful.
I’ll watch YT in all its horribleness on my consoles if I’m looking for something game-related and I don’t want to get up and grab my phone.,
The Streisand Effect - pretty much the only thing bearing her name that I like. The movie “What’s Up, Doc?” was good, though, so two things I guess.
I quit Prime a while ago. Since then, most of the time I pay for next day, they miss the window and I get a refund for the full shipping fee. Yeah, it means I got my stuff a day “late” but I ended up with free 2 day shipping.
I tell you hwat… tolerance is a social contract, not a moral imperative.
It’s not inflation - it’s price gouging by corporations. Wages aren’t going up nearly as quickly as corporate profits.
