We also discuss how naturally open technologies like the Fediverse can be susceptible to corporate takeovers, rugpulls and subsequent enshittification.
Yeah but you can at least choose exactly which episode you'd like rather than flipping channels or watching the guide channel to figure out what's on and even then it may be something you're not in the mood for. Not that I don't agree it's expensive again if you pay for them all but we do have better options even when subscribing to only one or two.
