You can sell me on Piefed without trying to cancel Lemmy out of nowhere.

How does it compare to mbin as a Lemmy alternative?

Testing testing…

It works when I use the direct link (https://postimg.cc/RN0r6qp8).

When I use the regular link (https://i.postimg.cc/15GydqG9/Image-20250602-145924.jpg), it says failed to load in Voyager.

Patreon dropped them.

Also, not necessarily on the verge anymore.

I support content creators being able to make a living in the fediverse (without enshittifying it).

So… good luck. I hope you find a healthy way to go about it.

Shouldn’t you have talked to them before starting the non-profit?

I do not claim to have any expertise (and defo not an accountant), but that sounds backwards to me.

I’d have skimmed a transcript, but I noped out of Instagram reel.

revenue share or something for content creators

Where’s the revenue coming from? The content creators paying to store their own videos?

I remember someone tried to monetize Mastodon feeds like Substacks or something.

It didn’t last long.

I can’t imagine any way to monetize content other than individual Patreons or collective subscriptions (like Nebula, Curiosity Stream and whatever Linus Tech Tips thing is called Floatplane).

On one hand, consumption of pirate IPTV services in Sweden has dropped two points, from 16% of all households in 2024 to 14% in 2025. On the other, 30% of over 15-year-olds consume content illegally every month, a figure that rises to over 50% among men under 35.

I hate when they just throw statistics at you like this.

30% of all Swedish people over 15.
50% of all Swedish men under 35.
14% of all Swedish households.

… I think? Does IPTV = all pirated content?

Edit: formatting

Yes, but that would only work if her group chat friends also use Signal.

Which likely isn’t going to happen unless all of their friends also use Signal.

I upvote you making stuff.

I said “why not make a newsletter,” not “why not make a side hustle”.

Lemmy (and the threadiverse in general) is a link aggregation platform.

A newsletter seems like a better format for long text posts like this one.

If you’re going to keep doing these, why not make a newsletter?

Where’s the graphic from?

Soulseek is nice. Community of people sharing their music libraries with each other.

Basically, don’t invite either of them to queer Thanksgiving.
