A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I don't have premium but I have stumbled on a number of content creators (I'm sure one of them was TheSpiffingBrit among others) explaining the audience how they get significantly more money from people watching them in a youtube premium.
Edit: all in all of course everything you do "lines the pocket of inverstors" in a capital society...
Moving to a decentralised service like Lemmy didn't line anyone's pockets (well, except maybe the infrastructure provider, but that could be anyone!)
If you think software is the answer you are in for a rather... regrettably consistent future, I believe.
