But it is the fundamental issue with art. Art needs funding whether that is a patron or a tip jar or whatever. Canvas and paint costs money. Being able to spend an extra afternoon looking at a landscape costs money. Having time to edit and revise your script costs money. And so forth.
And same for youtube. It is the difference between being able to “get it right” versus just using the footage you have and “making it work”. Hell, I love videos that explain how to do basic repairs that I should have learned long ago. And having the money to set up a free standing pipe or cut a bathtub spout in half works a lot better than trying to hold a camera to record yourself replacing a dishwasher airgap and not actually capturing where the clips were.
good for me, like i have money? assuming a lot bub
thanks for sharing about funding and youtube amd repairs. i agree, and you sound cool.
my point is that federated services should be source of truth, and that we can federate to corporate platforms as needed.
for example i use Discord cuz people are there. but i do important stuff in Matrix these days, and copy/paste to Discord as needed. that way we control our work and what is put into the Discord system instead of it being the default. this is my aspiration, migrations take a while.
not all of us care about profit. or at least not in the shove promotions in your face youtube status quo way.
And good for you.
