And it does not seem like he keeps anyone like that around in his personal life. The bad thing about this is Musk's childish tantrums will be used to attack Tesla and Space X. I believe that will result net negative affect to most of us will be negative. This whole thing is a debacle.

      That's why it's nothing for Apple to threaten to remove Twitter from their monopolistic app store. I don't think you're informed on what happened, just based on your words it's obvious you let other people form your opinion for you. You know WHAT to think(the video you watch just told you), just not HOW to think.
      I'd advise you to do your own research and form your own opinions, rather than just watching a video and repeating what the person in the video told you your opinion is.
      The scary thing is how many of you there are. I wonder what the root cause of this is, laziness? Indoctrination?

    • @arctic_haze

      @@McCucumber Yes, even when I watched the video, I thought ("what about the monopoly force of Apple"). I believe only courts would be able to decide if such action were monopolistic if it happened. This is exactly why I added the exception to my comment.
      PS. I meant that Elon should not threat Apple as he has no monopoly here. But I was aware that possibly Apple has one and it may be an effective argument in court. But still, threats are not a good solution here. Elon needs lawyers, not twits.

    Worth mentioning that a huge amount of App Developers only pay 15%. The 30% kicks in once the gross revenue hits US$1M. That's still a (relatively)low bar to clear, but it actually means that truly bootstrapped apps pay a really low premium for access to one of the best app platforms there is...

      Still their discounting of LBRY based on that quote alone is leaving me with a bad aftertaste. As far as I've heard that is the best actually applied use of blockchain I've ever seen, and it seems to kind of work.
      There's no "algorithm" so no discovery of new stuff, but on the whole it seems to be the closest thing we've got to TH-cam

      It can be an issue even without the lack of an algorithm. Say you want to share some content that is explicitly hate speech or something that the internet unanimously agrees should be present. One could share this content via say Google Drive (or something similar) but then there is someone with the power to censor it.
      With something that is truly decentralised, that entity would not exist.
      Personally, I would like to know what keywords Apple asked LBRY to censor? Was it political in nature or something else entirely. I'm not a fan of how LBRY are not providing details.
      Apple is usually not the good guy with App Store related incidents, however, I'm leaning towards them until more information on this comes out.

    Personally, I rather see a hastily done, partially unfinished video than a polished video that comes as 'a condiment after the meal' as we would say in Dutch. But so far, TLDR I believe manages to find a good balance and this one is perfectly fine for me too.

      @@benjaminmeusburger4254 that's an awful analogy for starters. The value of most of these things is based on potential interaction, for example prime time TV advert slots cost way more than 1am slots becuase more people will watch them. This is the same, just becuase companies are dropping out for ideological reasons doesn't mean others wont see the benefit of being able to advertise to an even bigger audience. As usual with musk it's short term turbulence for long term gain, look at Telsa, or paypals early years vs now. Plus it's now actually being run like a business not an adult daycare center for privileged Californians who can't handle anything outside their safe spaces.

    I have heard that advertisers are also having difficulty accessing analytics they use to evaluate ads, so they have no way of assessing if their ad spend is worth the investment. Which is another reason not to run ads on twitter.
