can you enlighten me?
It’s a service, why should you pay once? It’s like water and electricity, ongoing cost needs to be balanced by ongoing revenue. Especially when the utility is also ongoing.
If you prefer paying once, get some dividend ETFs and use the dividends to pay for the service. Yes, it’s expensive, but you can also sell the etf again when you stop using the service.

suburbs take up less place than i expected
I’ll rather pay once that 10 bucks a month for the next 36 months. I also like still having the game in 15 years, after the servers have been shut down, and when i wouldnt pay a monthly fee
To all the people here ranting about monetary debt: its not an issue. Money isn’t designed to hold value in the long term. It’s a feature, not a bug.
It’s just really unfortunate for those who play the game as if money were an asset. It’s meant for transactions, not for storage.
Capitalism is nothing but allowing freedom and allowing property (in contrast to posession)
Someone correct me if I’m wrong.
Operating nodes is expensive, offers no reward, and comes with a serious legal risk.
This won’t stop the NSA from operating a few. I assume that a significant portion of Tor nodes is run by intelligence agencies. If they control all nodes used for a connection(i believe three are used), they can probably piece together what connections a user is having.
I’m under the impression that my use will only make it slower for people who really need it.
Do you care about not seeing ads? Since you apparently like getting stuff for free: this is the free version of reddit
Our exchange here is public, a gift to humanity and all aliens that might stumble upon it. If meta can make money from it, so be it. But anyone else can just as well.
Exactly.
If YouTube wanted to, they could disable that.
Honestly, I’ve always been surprised as to why YouTube even tolerates adblockers. It’s basically a no-brainer for them to bake ads into the stream and disable skipping
I do understand. But is lemmy so different from reddit? In each case the content is done by the users anyway, and subreddits come and go all of the time. One could argue that Facebooks aquisition of WhatsApp is the same kind of change, as switching out the reddit backend of Sync with a lemmy backend.
