Actually while typing that out I thought more about the technical architecture of such distributed alternative streaming service that pays artists fairly, and it does sound like it could be fun to build.
But everyone in the fediverse already knows how difficult/impossible it is to get the average person to switch to open source software. It would most likely be a waste of time.
Because they have all the customers.
If you don’t like the rate the current major platforms give, you could choose to use one of the many alternatives that (presumably) exist.
And if they really don’t, I could build you one in a couple of weekends with all the open source resources and federation protocols available today.
But none of that matters because all the paying customers are on those major platforms. And until you convince users to move off those platforms, you’re basically their bitch. They’ll pay you whatever they happen to feel like paying you.
Just use Windows defender already. It’s been good enough for ages. All the others downplay this to justify their existence.
They ship a version of Windows 10 without any of those included. It’s called Windows 10 LTSC (Long Term Support Channel).
Try installing that to never be bothered again.
I think you read the column that says Google Pay compatible. It’s talking about the tap to pay feature you can use with your credit card at merchants, rather than the play store.
Honestly, the tap to pay feature is what’s keeping my from using one of the more privacy oriented ROMs or root. It’s just too convenient.
Dunno about all of them, but the first three are very solid representations of their genres.
Maybe throw in a comedy, like Food Wars to round it out.
