    You want to portrait yourself as an anti-corpo warrior. But all you’re doing is making corpo content a mainstream monopoly, and through that they will eventually find a way to make someone pay for it.

    You will only make corpos go broke if you actually spend some money on alternative content. Meaning that content will get better, and there will be some follower base to enjoy that content with.

      I guess i can see the appeal of that idea if you’re willing to give up the variety of content you would otherwise have access to by sticking with corporations. I think Lemmy is a good example of this idea. I just can’t find it within me to give up the massive amounts of content available to me particularly when it comes to gaming and film.

      I mean think about it. I won’t play GTA6 so as not to contribute to the oligopoly Rockstar games is associated with. I mean i get your point - small changes make big differences right? - but it’s not always feasible to abandon all the good stuff that’s out there all in an effort to promote individual innovation.
