I prefer “list” view over grid view. Switching to grid view shows six videos before the break, but significantly less information about the video.

    I don’t get this argument. You already have windows and Mac ecosystems where people pay for everything and you have the professional sales guys and big tech being fully invested in sucking all value they can from it all.

    Ads in operating systems, spying on users, ads in search engines, telemetry in products, everything you want yourself because you want companies to make money from users.

    You have Facebook, Instagram, Google, Microsoft, Meta etc etc. They are all there for you.

    So maybe use one of the existing platforms which is fully monetized? Use programs developed for those platforms? Don’t bring that shit into the Linux world.

      You mean those tracking platforms and walled gardens? Is that what you have to do, opt into predatory platforms in order tobuy some software? How does that make sense? “Oh well, you just need to sacrifice your privacy and autonomy to buy a product”… seems like you want people to be manipulated and subverted so you can sit on the other end and be a smug git.

      Mass tracking is a danger to democracy and liberty. Look at China. Stop enabling the status quo. Stop being a selfish zealot.

        That tracking and those walled gardens will come to Linux if you make it a highly profitable platform to develop apps for, or allow ads into our software.

        I don’t know why that’s so hard to understand when you have examples right in front of your eyes.
