I think the average person just simply doesn't care about their privacy.

  • Well okay, with my piracy habit perhaps I do have something to hide😂

    But I also think most people don't realise they do have stuff to hide.

  • They're also not mega corps tracking and selling your every move. It's quite a bit different. What's public here is what I explicitly make public, there's no unwanted encroachment or permissions.

  • It's becoming clear to me that getting a picture or video community off the ground that is not just memes might be difficult, and will take a pretty large userbase to sustain. But I think with something like Stealth app, as long as it continues to allow downloading from reddit, it should be easy for moderators to source video content themselves for the time being.

  • It's a bit of a shock that simply picking an instance and signing up like any regular site is such a hurdle to so many people.

  • I think we need to start poaching video content from reddit and posting it here. Stuff like HoldMyBeer, StartledCats, etc. There's so much content for the taking, I don't think we should get stuck on OC. In this stage we just need content. I'm seriously considering starting a cat sub or holdmybeer sub, and stealing all the content from reddit until people starting posting their own contributions.

  • Something is being tranferred, and that is the picture which you do not own nor have any right to own.

  • Yes you are taking something. Of course you are. You are a taking a video file which you do not have the right to. Why do you need to convince yourself there is nothing grimy about doing? Like jesus christ, just be grimey. Wht you gotta lie to yourself?

  • And yet you still shared something. Those files exist. This is an extremely weak argument honestly.

  • Oh you're one of those just looking for a reason to be pissy. I wasn't trying to be helpful to anyone, I was simply sharing my experience. Touch grass

  • Well first of all, yes it is stealing to take something that does not belong to you. The definition of stealing is not beholden to the consequences of the actions itself.

    Furthermore, if you pirate to avoid paying a subscription, then yes they are losing something. I'm a massive pirate. I steal all my media. I feel no guilt and I also have no delusions about what I am doing. I do it to save money.

  • Piracy is always stealing. Y'all can keep trying to spin it if it helps, but its pure copium.

  • There was no learning curve for me. I randomly picked an instance LMFAO!

  • I like it, but the antenna is too reddit esque.
