Wait Nebula is actually built out? The YouTubers I listen to make it sound like it's in its early infancy.

Google search is ass

It feels incredibly weird using Bing... I don't even use it as an FU to Google, it's just somehow weirdly a better search engine right now.

I use kagi, all that money I saved from not paying for cable (streaming) lol

Yeah nebula rules, (practical engineering legaleagle minute physics etc) I’m procrastinating dropping Apple TV for it but I figure as soon as I do I’ll be happy I did, YouTube isn’t so good anymore either. The other good one imo is dropout tv, it’s comedy and dnd type stuff with some surprisingly big names imo

The through line is that now figuring out streaming services is cheap enough that smaller companies can do it, so buying a streaming thing from a company the creators actually work for is a better business model for both viewers and creators than YouTube or other streaming platforms

Sounds like a Uoptian paradise. I just assumed there wouldn't be enough content for it ever to be worth it.

Things sure are dire when healthy competition feels utopian ;)

whether it's worth it is up to you I think, personally it's worth it to me but it's certainly possible that it's not for others, and that's ok! but the options exist, they're out there
