i pity the people reddit is having replace them

because they're going to get destroyed, and the sub will go back to private because they wont be able to handle it. bless them doubly if they're trying to do it on the mobile app, as all the good modtool apps still don't actually work.

the one I saw tonight was mildlyinteresting, whose entire mod staff was booted immediately after they swapped the subreddit over to allowing nsfw content (after user discussion and an overwhelming vote) but they've already been reinstated by a different admin

Who wants to make open source reddit with me?

Mainly the decentralized media servers that we'll have to develop. The website won't be too hard.

Oh, oh honey, you're still stuck in cryptro bro land, it's ok, you don't need to have decentralized servers for it to be open source.
Just put it on github like everyone else.

Excuse me for the wall of text. I'm very tired and my lid is gone.

I'm an actual IT guy, not a useless tech startup idea guy. This whole crypto thing? It was not our fault. I have never met another programmer that accepts crypto as anything but a bad joke, and yet we get all the blame for the greatest scam in history. This is why I will never forgive the real tech bros that used us as their meat shields. The ones that are genuinely extremely low IQ libertarians, absolutely zero talent past their lizard brain impressively being able to click on a 3D head faster than other people, that got rich off crypto, and hired real IT guys to glue together their disgusting mess in hopes of turning their blind luck into more money.

Open source is good, and decentralization is good. But blockchains are not decentralized, and are only good for ponzi schemes, what they were specifically designed for from day one. Yes, Bitcoin's genius creator, the one who was smart enough to create the perfect ponzi scheme and become the richest man in history on accident.

Anyway, what you do is host the HTML site normally. You decentralize the storage so that everything helps host the media. It will be a browser extension, that will open a QUIC connection to other clients, and stream the videos wherever they need to go. There will have to be a fair bit of redundancy, a lot of redundancy, to ensure files don't go missing. If that's not plausible, I'll just go with a Desktop application. If a video isn't loading, or the site's loading slow, I'll show a prompt to the user that they can help host their own subscriptions by running the desktop client. There will be enough volunteers this way to run the whole thing.

We use that same backend to host different front ends. Reddit, Twitter, Youtube, and Facebook clones. Best part? You are not the customer, you are not the product. You are the host of the site. No ads, no tracking. It's how we solve everything.

We set up subscriptions and donations. 100% of the money goes to the content creator. It's a non-profit.

We do streaming as well. These things are not as hard to set up as you would think. Just make sure you have the bandwidth, that's it.

Mastadon tried this, but the user interface is so abhorrent that it died despite everything going its way, and being put in a position to take off. (Open source developers are heavily brain-damaged when it comes to user interface, and painstakingly patronizing in disregarding anyone without the high intellect to use their awful UIs.)

This is also something d-live promised to do before it became the "conservative free stop woke media platform", and still does, but it literally just runs on a private server without decentralizing anything, because, well, it was a crypto project, and all blockchain ceos are degenerate, worthless trash who deserve to die. It also literally just didn't load the video half the time.

Ah, I apologize I could have sworn you were the person who got disillusioned with NFTs from a weird discord job being the singular tech guy.

I have some crypto in limbo... I'm already at a profit, but I can't get rid of the rest of my crypto until it gets to $600.

It ALMOST got to $600 last week, but it tanked again

Why are you setting an arbitrary goal? Just take your money out and go.

it's not an arbitrary goal, it's the point where I'd be in the green, rather than just in the black.

That's the thing, though: Most people aren't aware of the situation. Without knowing what's going on, they just know that Google results that point to Reddit are unreliable now.

Why are search results always claimed to be specifically Google results nowadays? 50% don't even use Google, they use other search engines.

because google has become synonymous with searching over the past 20 years.

Bullshit. There's no way it's only 50%
