The time of YouTube may finally be coming to a close.
Yes, and Reddit is dead. This is delusional, simply not happening. YouTube is huge and a self hosted or federated solution won't come even close. Lemmy instances had issues with user overload, and this is a Reddit clone. What do you think will happen with videos?
I agree. I've stopped pirating games on PC as well because the risk is simply no longer worth it. I can afford games and can pay for the ones I need on PC. They're also not as overpriced as console games.
This is quite concerning. Hopefully the adblocker extension devs are able to bypass this. I expect a cat and mouse game eventually.
The last sentence suggests that, in some cases, pirates can get content sooner than their paying counterparts. This availability issue is often seen as a main driver of piracy. While improvements can be made on the supply side, the course urges teens to postpone their needs instead.
Really? Who would've guessed that piracy is a service problem? How about you improve your shit so people don't feel inclined to pirate it. Who's gonna pay for a shittier experience?
Because Firefox on mobile is a pile of shit to be honest. It works great on desktop, but the mobile experience is subpar. For a chromium browser, Bromite used to be an option, but it seems abandoned now. Brave is one of the few Foss chromium browsers left that also supports adblocking.
I agree, this entire thing looks very blown out of proportion to me. It's not the first time and not the last time there will be malware in a brand new game torrent on 1337x.
This exact situation has happened before with a new game torrent that had malware, torrent eventually got taken down, and nobody raised a huge fuss other than not to download that torrent.
Yeah, I just can't be bothered to switch when torrenting works fine as is.
There's a guide for that here: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/2333900
