@SRAZKVT @n0toose Since these services would be using free software (for example a fork of PeerTube), it's likely that free software projects (such as PeerTube) would also get a lot more funding, and a lot more code contributions sent back.
Contrary to what some people believe, the big streaming services and studios aren't evil; they're just capitalists, and their mission is to make money.
Netflix heavily uses FreeBSD on their infrastructure. They send a ton of patches to FreeBSD all the time.

@libreleah@mas.to @SRAZKVT@tech.lgbt @n0toose@chaos.social Big tech is actually evil and that they occasionally throw something usable our way doesn't mean they are not evil.

@SRAZKVT @n0toose Perhaps, but I'm not some wishy washy idealist. I mean, I am also that, but I like to think seriously about real solutions to problems, that are practical.
Creative people all need to be paid, and it'd be nice if we had more and better services available.
Doing it in an ethical way that respects consumer rights, is perfectly feasible, and it's possible that a lot more profit could be made (lower operating costs).
YouTube could also do this; Google is in the perfect position.
