Why don’t they require people to go to a government building and sign paperwork to get off then get it added to your state ID that can be scanned at death to tell if you’re an opt out

If someone is going to harvest organs they will not care about the legality lol.

I’m religious and yes science comes first

Soon that will change since we’re starting to genetically modify pigs to grow human organs.

Except that in most of the world its opt out yet there isn’t a rise in that. There is zero chance of people killing someone when they need their organ

It’s how at least on the federal level you convince people to unite and get sweeping economic reforms. A party wide policy of “leave it to the states” and the only non economic policy being to implement proportional representation would actually help people while allowing the state level parties to have state specific social issues

It’s to make unity among the working class easier. If everyone can agree in the economics then it’s smarter to stay quiet on divisive social issues and leave ot to the elected members to vote how they see fit.

I prefer voice mail, If it’s important enough send it, if you’re not a contact and there’s no caller ID I’m not picking up, I’m not screening your call I don’t want you to know I saw the call.

If you’re a contact and I miss you send a text

The only thing I have a problem with is it lacks so many small things old reddit has, hard to explain. Fix them and it’s perfect.

1. Show posts and comments separately on a profile.
2. Seeing comments should require us to click the big children not small + on controversial comments.
3. Allowed videos to actually be posted.
4. Show a number on the mail not just a red outline.
5. But this is pedantic seeing karma totals.

The first 4 would really help

It’s undeniable that this UI is superior to all other formats of messages boards

Reddit started in 2005 and actually used bots to give the illusion of activity before it got big, it was a place for communities to have a hub and explore others when nothing like it had existed. Lemmy doesn’t have that luxury people who don’t like reddit for 1 reason or another will go to Lemmy if they know it exists.

Somehow make enough to pay for a legit ad

The rich pretend they’re all powerful but really they have a much less secure money source. Where as we know our money is ours the rich can lose everything like that. Elon could go broke in a single day he’s on his way out of the billionaire club because now everyone hates him

We could use gene editing to get the DNA of an organ and use it to clone a copy inside a pig for example and then use it for the patient.

While I know someone have benefits being a carrier in the west has zero benefits. People should at least be able to sign up to be test subject if they have a chronic or terminal illness

What method there was none lol. He was literally the first true scientist.

As long as facts aren’t being censored I see no issues

You think people didn’t used to have jobs?

Back then videos were a lot less produced and more raw style. When I first started using/watching youtube in 07 content was a lot quicker to make.

“Quality” is subjective and doesn’t necessarily require much money.

The requiring money isn’t about cost to produce its the time it takes. Most successful channels now have several hours of editing for each video because the average standard of videos now looks like it could be produced for TV.

Thousands of people already are. Myself included. And it’s not “just for fun”, it’s because we don’t want to subject ourselves to abusive and invasive corporations.

I agree with this on paper, but in practice the “customer base” is currently Youtube and TikTok. If I want to create a serious channel with a lot of views and a large community I’d need to spend all my free time making and editing videos and without a real chance to monetize its just not worth it.

Most people don’t start making videos to make money. In the early Tube days there was no money.

Not anymore, people have jobs which take up at least 8 hours of their day, sleep another lets round it to 8 hours, then other responsibilities. Anyone who seriously want to make quality videos on a consistent schedule wants to make money and the end goal being to turn it into their job.

PeerTube only has 1 less avenue for monetization than YT, among dozens.

People on Youtube are much more easily able to make money and make a living. Most of it actually has nothing to do with Youtube other than the fact that Youtube provides them with a base of billions of potential viewers.

1. AdSense which is hands down the worst of them.
2. Sponsors allow people to decide who they are willing to show on their videos and makes people decent money especially bigger creators. That’s not going to happen on smaller platforms.
3. Patrion this is probably the biggest one people are able to get consistent monthly income and make Youtube their full time job.
4. Creator made subscription platforms. This is another big perk I pay for 2 curiosity stream and the history one.

No one is going to a platform thats “just for fun” because content quality will suffer and be less enjoyable for creators.
