Honestly out of all 12 steps it’s the first step that actually hits the hardest.

“We admitted we were powerless over alchohol (although you could substitute alcohol for anything really)—that our lives had become unmanageable.”

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 feel sorry for Wozniak… Watching the company he helped build turn into what it has.

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.

A lot of people probably about to suddenly qualify for political asylum…

It’s also possible that they can apply for asylum in another country. Yea that’s gonna cost money and probably time they don’t have but it’d worth a try imo.

You’d think they’d qualify for witness protection…
