You had me until:
Imagine what companies would pay for the “intelligence” of knowing what their competitors are thinking
Right there is the reason why it will fall apart once it hits critical mass.
The little guys might not have a choice but the big players will run away from the cloud if it means they lose their edge.
I kind of agree with you but from experience I know when businesses get way waaay too big, they kind of trip over themselves cause of all the tech debt and spaghetti code
- Comment on A post-American, enshittification-resistant internet 3 days ago:
What about a system that works like torrents under the hood and every time you went to watch something you just download it with an expiry date?
You just need a metadata system like lemmy so people can find the videos, and once they decided to watch it, it downloads it for them via the torrent protocol.
The only disadvantage is that it won’t be streaming but let’s be honest, streaming isn’t a huge advantage for shorter clips + high bandwidth (which you need for streaming anyway).
You can also further optimize it by making each video cut into 5 min chunks so you can always download the first one and start watching sooner.
The only drawback, like others mentioned, is that it works best with a savvy user base instead of just spoon feeding you and giving you little control (which apparently people just love these days).

- Comment on MFW I wake up to find Lemmy feeds full of USA stuff 1 week ago:
Yeah people have been talking about having less and less activity on Lemmy.
IMO it’s because of the content. The platform works flawlessly but unfortunately lemmy came about during a time that politics being so pervasive.
It might be a general trend. I’m willing to bet all social media is slowly dying but the for profits inject bots to keep their numbers up.
- Comment on Self-hosting in 2025 isn't about privacy anymore - it's about building resistance infrastructure 1 week ago:
Exactly, I’m glad more people are seeing it this way.
The goal of capital is to gain power and leverage, they don’t really care about some numbers.
It’s the dream of all tech companies to become a monopoly, they even say it with a straight face. They want as much control as possible? Why? So they can use the leverage for even more.
The beautiful/horrifying part is, the system weeds out anyone company that does not do this. The only way is for the end users to push back.

I heard some great things about the game.
Tried it out and didn’t see a point. Everything in the ocean is dangerous and you had no objectives.
So you could just stay on your ship forever.
I like to think I won the game that way
