Be the change you wish to see in the world, I guess. But I don’t see a commercial product like that taking off, simply because the MPAA and RIAA will fight it. They will use the media to convince the public that it is a piracy tool. I also don’t think it’s fair to demand FOSS volunteers to cater to tech illiterates. These projects are a labor of love, not a product. Self hosting means you are taking the responsibility of hosting something, and that comes with pros and cons. I think expecting a black box solution to remain stable and secure in the long run is a hard sell for me, it doesn’t line up with my personal and professional experience.


On the one hand I completely agree with you. On the other I know that Texas is a maga cesspool. We all know that not everyone in the state is conservative, but we also know that it’s a bastion for conservative leaning people. You might not like it, but do you actually think it will ever change?
