Yeah. As with many things, "Can this make money?" is not the same as "Is this a nice thing to have around?" and the disconnect between the two when capitalism tends to assume they'll be the same thing, is a source of unhappiness in many ways.
Funnily enough, one of the things Reddit's PCM community tried to push was the concept of nationalizing YouTube because "it's a public service."
They thought the average browser was too stupid to ask why all these Nazis wanted that, where all of a sudden the 1st Amendment actually comes into play, and now you can't take down their blatant misinformation and hate speech.
Good point, i never thought about that angle. Looks like the only option is self hosting then.
Hmm that's pretty fucking clever for complete choads.
Idk. This was around all the drama of Trump getting banned from Twitter, so the separation between a company censoring things that might cost them money and the government doing it is pretty clear in people's minds, and nationalization just isn't something the forces of neoliberalism do, at least openly. It just never had a hope of becoming a real thing.
