They are more source available than opensource. The documentation on how to run nodes and how everything slots in together is either not there or terribly difficult to find. They have whitepapers, but if I want to host a node, I’m not going to read all that jazz to understand how things work.

Their homepage doesn’t have a “documentation” page or “admin guide” or anything. Just “download the client and get started!” even though there’s a webpage and it’s not clear where the generated crypto goes to, nor how to access it without them or when the website goes down and you don’t have a client.

With things like mastodon, peertube, funkwhale, hell even bittorrent, there are clear guides on how to do stuff.

LBRY always felt kinda shady to me because of that. They promised compensation for views and likes, but they seemed to be the major benefactors from the entire thing. It doesn’t surprise me one bit that the SEC shut them down.

Which means the studios can pay less and expect the stars to pick up the slack.

Actors shouldn’t be paying, studios should. If they can pay the top actors big bucks, they should be able to shift some of that money to the rest.

I am running Win11(pro) because the new Intel CPUs require it.

Say what? Why does it require it?

Wow, I’m not alone. Been trialing linux in preparation of what’s to come and it’s actually quite OK. Went with Kubuntu because Ubuntu doesn’t feel like Windows and Steam has official support for it or something? It was easy as pie to install.

Once Windows 10 doesn’t work, it’s probably curtains for windows on my PC.

I’m just afraid Windows 12 will be something like ChromeOS that just starts Microsoft Edge fullscreen and opens a login screen to some computer in the cloud that I have to pay for.
