Ironic

Peertube is the obvious candidate, but I’m not sold on the content.
I use nebula.tv, many of the creators I like are there too. You pay somerhing, but their business model is not too bad imho.
Floatplane is somewhat similar, but LMG is involved, which I don’t love.

Morally wrong, yes. But sadly normal…

This is the way

Why not both?
- Comment on Fucking leeches 4 weeks ago:
Wait, do I understand correctly that in your place, the buy-in costs are roughly a third of the (asking?) price of the appartment?

The financial system is failing since decades, maybe we need to make bigger changes
- Comment on Fucking leeches 4 weeks ago:
If the Tenants are really such victims they should just get together buy the property out.
If they could do that, they could probably buy a better place and wouldn’t have to live there.

I had to rant in a couple of comments because I drives me crazy when people defend leeching.
On a more constructive note: Housing cooperatives. I think they should be more widespread. Some people come together to build a house and then live in it for the cost it takes to actually support it. No crazy big apartments with a reasonable amount of people (roughly one bedroom per person), shared luxury such as gardens, in house shops, hell even a pool if you want. There is no leeching, just collective ownership.

the land couldn’t be used for housing
why not?
But generally yes, garages are less of a problem. But there is no ethical renting (under capitalism).

Are those parasites too? Yes?

How do you live alone in a fucking house?
- Comment on Fucking leeches 4 weeks ago:
The renting part isn’t even that bad, the owning part is the problem.
- Comment on Fucking leeches 4 weeks ago:
go to war with companies, ban companies on owning and renting places, not people with that I can agree. But taking money is still taking money.
- Comment on Fucking leeches 4 weeks ago:
So?
- Comment on Fucking leeches 4 weeks ago:
You still take someone elses money, just less of it.

- Comment on How is my bedroom being heated? 1 month ago:
Maybe still floor heating? If the apartment is well insulated, the floor is only slightly warmer than the air, since the large area allows for heating with a small temperature difference.

For what of the list?
It also depends on the definition of each, but I mean in a basic sense.
- Comment on Advice on enjoying your life 1 month ago:
I was under the impression mean and average were used interchangeably, but I’m not a native speaker.
What I meant was mean salary indeed. But median would probably be more adequate.
- Comment on Advice on enjoying your life 1 month ago:
Some money yes, but an average salary should work for all of them, no?
