I agree! Loved their chemistry, and that definitly could have been fleshed out a little more. All though, the choice to generally focus more on Jules, is still a good decision. But yeah, would not have minded a little more episodes with them.

We’ve been doing this for 15 weeks already. Time flies. How do you like it? Should we increase the speed, or keep it like this?

Thanks everyone who shared their experience these last few weeks.

Yes! Definitly agree. I think my favorite episode of season 1, just so much fun.

Thanks for the update! We’ll brace for some downtime!

Inevitable crash of the Streaming Wars, the period of rapid growth is at an end. The pricing was enticing for a reason, because the economy enabled rapid growth in the then new streaming space. Content is still king and investing in great content just got wat more expensive when the interest rates went up. This means the services need to actually become profitable or get out of the game for how expensive it is.

Now it will be a question of what service is able to last, who buys who and what content owners will go back to selling their content to those who remain.

Some more speculations from me:

• We’ll see more price increases across the board, and limitations of how you can watch content. (Thanks NF)
• Ad free packages will become more expensive, or might even leave eventually.
• Subscriptions with ads will become way more popular.
• Smaller players like Peacock and Showtime might decide to just sell to who ever pays most and cease operations for their app.
• Netflix and Disney might introduce new subscriptions that only offer a subset of their library

Edit: I think it is also likely that monthly subscriptions will become semi monthly or even a minimum of 3 - 6 months. If that doesn’t happen, then series will become even way more spread out in their release dates as is currently the case. (Season 1: The Fall, Season 1: Gradient etc.)

Great App! Props to you! = )

I’m using Nova, but your reply convinced me to try it out. Sounds like a cool launcher for someone who likes to tweak around (me basicly) :)

Protip: If you are somewhat skeptical of the Branch integration, you can disable network permission in Android for the Nova Launcher. It doesn’t need to connect to anything to work fine generally speaking. Without network permisson, the launcher can’t send anything to the internet.

Feet don’t kill me now = )

Great to hear that there is a lot of people willing to donate! I agree with your argument regarding free servers, curious to see what other instances will be doing.

Thanks for getting back to me. Have a great day! :)

Hey @ruud@lemmy.world, fellow SysAdmin here! Thank you for hosting this Lemmy instance! It’s a great place, uptime has been excellent!

I’ve a question, if you’re willing to give your opinion. Hardware is not cheap and eventually it might become impossible to pay the bills to host this instance.

What kind of support model do you envision for the future of this instance? Donations, subscription, advertisements?

Thanks anyway, and good luck to you!

Edit: I see that donations are already optional. Nice! But i’m still curious, so is there other options you’ve considered for your Mastadon instance for example?
