Instead of paying for a bunch of channels we don’t need we’re paying for a bunch of shows we’ll never watch.
TV shows should be released via RSS and a subscription is per-show for like $2 month. Then everyone can just have a single app with just the shows they want.
Yeah, I just wanna rob the place of all the content I put on it. If they reinstate the comments and posts ill just request a complete EU compliant clensing
Arguably, anyone can scrape lemmy for free. Of course, it’s illegal, unless explicitly allowed by the license of the respective instance.
It’s sad for reddit though that they could have the option to protect their users from scraping, since they are big enough to enforce their rights. But yeah, profits.
Can I sue them btw to pay me for whatever value my comments and posts have created over there?
For some equivalent posts we’ve seen significantly larger engagement numbers for Mastodon compared to X/Twitter, particularly given the relative sizes of different platforms.
I don’t do “Twitter style” social media much but when I did use my Mastodon account I found significant engagement. On Twitter my posts were invisible, but on Mastodon people found, liked, and commented on them. Conversation were good as well.
I was a beta tester for BlueSky and I found the same “invisibility” problem there. Same posts on Mastodon, Twitter, and Blue Sky and only the Mastodon ones generated responses or any acknowledgement for that matter.
SkyShowtime seems to be a pilot version of this in Eastern Europe and the Netherlands. Not that it seems to be doing all that well. However, I’m not sure what Peacock offers that’s original content so it’s questionable what a bundle would add.
In any event, this seems a daft thing to do when they’re trying to sell the firm. One of the biggest problems Paramount+ has had is that it doesn’t stick with a strategy and has been so tangled up in previous licensing or partnership deals that it can’t pursue its plans in any reasonable or systematic way. Tying the hands of a new owner with a poison pill deal with Comcast doesn’t seem to benefit anyone.
