thanatotus , to android in Google clamps down on VPN workarounds for cheaper YouTube Premium subscriptions

That’s a good approach. But people aren’t tech savvy enough to install NewPipe in order to avoid ads. Paying for YT premium is the most user friendly way to avoid ads and support creators.

thanatotus , (edited ) to android in Google clamps down on VPN workarounds for cheaper YouTube Premium subscriptions

Could be one of the many reasons such as ensuring their favorite creators get paid for their views and end users not being tech savvy enough to know about ad blockers and NewPipe.

Why won’t they?

thanatotus , to mildlyinteresting in Stark difference in temperature on both sides of Himalayas.

Global warming affects every region of the planet and in essence means irregular weather. AFAIK extreme winds in Canada and extreme cold in USA were attributed to global warming.

Also FYI, the Indian planes are one of the most fertile planes on the planet, that’s why its able to support so many people for 1000s of years.

Global warming might affect Indian subcontinent more than other regions (im not a scientist) but I’ve only read otherwise.

How so??

FYI atom project is dead. There is a community form available but it was to buggy for me.

thanatotus , to linuxmemes in Yes, it is all Unix

That’s because UNIX is a trademark and OS vendors will have to pay fees to opengroup.org in order to call their OS Unix.

Fedora also by default includes only free stuff. AFAIK Ubuntu includes non free codecs for media and other software that doesn’t fit in FOSS category (it’s also one of t the reasons why Ububtu became so popular in my opinion, it just works works out of the box)

thanatotus , to piracy in Do you donate to FOSS projects?

I’ve donated in the past to elementaryOS, other Linux projects and separately to Wikipedia.

I’ve tried contributing code, but it’s miniscule. I wish I could give more time.

thanatotus , to technology in Youtube’s Anti-adblock and uBlock Origin

If the advertisers start paying less, then Google will just increase the number of ads shown to the user. And playing content on more tabs won’t even matter to them.

The issue is that they are a monopoly so they control and they can do whatever they want. The alternative is federated video services but those aren’t matured yet.
