that would be extremely time consuming, imagine traveling around the world with every major transport frozen

and imagine the time It would take to actually find everyone who needs a pocket granade

that was... the whole point... overthinking the meaning of something

[–] hswolf 2 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I mean, sure, the dictionary definition says "created directly and personally by a particular artist; not a copy or imitation", and I agree with that, but hear me out, I like these philosophical rabbit holes.

The definition says "not a copy or imitation", so we are presupposing that those things exist, so something original is the antithesis of a copy or imitation.

Now imagine if absolutely everything is original, wouldn't the word lose its meaning? Isn't something original the opposite of a copy? If no copies exist wouldn't it be the opposite of nothing? Or even itself?

Original things wouldn't be original, they would just be.

I understand your view, it's indeed a lesser hassle to just pay the subscription and be done with It.

I can be wrong about It, but judging by how big corpos operate things most of that sub money probably will end up in the company account, not the creators (again, I can be wrong about this).

Wouldn't you say that using an adblock and supporting creators directly (hot take here since you could want to support 50 people), be a more reasonable and better approach?

Ads are fine, but while the company is being obnoxiously intrusive and predatory towards Its customers, it's hard to just pay to not be inconvenienced.

the best part about that is that everyone would start discussing the actual answer for dozens of minutes, without reaching any conclusion or the one that looks more fun

Fair point! See my answer on the other user's message where I talk about targeted patronization instead of overall subscription, I'd love to hear your opinion about it

[–] hswolf 2 points 1 year ago

I'm not trying to criticize anyone here for their choices, I'm just curious about the actual effects of such a subscription.

As of now the most basic one is 14usd/month, how much of that money gets to the creators that you Want to support? As of the writing of this response I don't know this information nor searched about It. Do we have an actual diagram or any information saying how much are you contributing for each channel you are subscribed to?

Suppose you are subscribed to 28 channels and the sub money gets distributed evenly, that's 50 cents a Month to everyone, not much "paying their due" in my opinion.

Now if you really really want to patronize one, two or three channels, wouldn't sending money directly to them or paying their exclusive membership be a more reasonable way to go about It?
