  • I wouldnt say that people dont care. See this example now. Earlier sites were free to implemet all sorts of spyware in their cookies and people didnt know, so it maybe seemd like people “didnt care” but after some new lavs were implemented that forced sites to request permision from the user directly, i saw many people that dont want to click “i agree” and that was good news because to me also looked like people dont understand whats going on so thats why they dont care. But if you ask them directly, when they have opcion to chose thay say no i dont want to allow tracking! So for me i think that we should just explain how to say no. What to do to forbid someone to track you. Look at me i sure didnt know anything abot that, infact anything about computers realy, and now im on linux and prefering open source software…



  • Well you are hosting videos that are on lbry but its done automaticly, its not something that you have to do manyaly. You just enter the desktop aplikacion and watch videos. And rest is done on itsown. Videos that you watched you are now hosting for others to watch and thats it. You just set how much memory you want to allow app to use, so it doesnt fill up your drive and thats it.

    And if you are content creator you host your videos just at first so couple of people can see them, and after that people are watching and hosting your videos vithout you doing anything.



  • You are right, my apologies. Thats a platform for watching videos just like youtube. But it works in a completly diferent way, similar to torrent. Because its goal is to bring content freedom. The problem with youtube is that they directly decide what people can record and what is forbiden. If you make content that youtube doesnt like, first he will hide it so wery small amount of people can see it, second they will demonetise you, and third they will delete your video and your whole channel at the end. Just because you wanted to spread the truth. Thats why lbry is created, they call it content freedom. :)
