this is not feasible even in China

Since alternatives that manage traffic in a better way exist, such as peertube and odysee, google can burn in hell, it's a shitty company that slows down competition, I don't give anything to a company that spends its budget on bullshit as manifest V3. I pay the creators with PayPal or Patreon, not with 70% of a subscription.

If only they didn't demonetize creators who accidentally say whatever SJWs don't like.

Or remove the slowdowns they deliberately applied to those who use Firefox (it's not a conspiracy, they really did it).

It would just be enough that Google aren't sons of bitches and I would probably also be happy to pay youtube premium.

I prefer to pay my favorite creators with donations, patreon or merchandise.

I'm not in the US, I don't know how FAA operates. In my socially ridiculous country it's called ENAC and the difficulty is similar to that of a car license in terms of the level of knowledge required, and it's an infinite bureaucratic stress like any non-mainstream license, only those who do it for work do it.

from me all the FPV pilots I know don't have the license, because it's very difficult to do because they are almost all the same things that a real airplane pilot needs to know,

Also I have seen FPV 6S drones at maximum speed even in densely populated areas always exceeding the legal limit of 120m if they had a license

if you want DRM-free, bandcamp is the best way, but for "exploring" subscribing to spotify is the best way in terms of quantity, and it doesn't pay much less than other DRMs even if it has a monopoly, and is not from the USA or China

Here you can compare other services if you are interested in how much money goes to the creators: https://streamingcalculator.com/ or https://www.musicgateway.com/royalties-calculator

otherwise if you don't want to pay, youtube + soundcloud with adblock is the best solution. or if you really have a lot of time you can make your own self-hosted pod on funkwhale: https://docs.funkwhale.audio/administrator/index.html

Tell me what type of society you are imagining please, in the real world it is already difficult for the average entrepreneur not to evade VAT on at least 30% of his purchases, because if we don't talk about Nordic countries or Switzerland then I don't see it feasible how people can accept even more interventions from the government in their lives.

Honestly better this way, the fediverse is much more resilient and future-proof than a site maintained by a group of people with the aim of making money and deciding the fate of their service, and I doubt that reddit becomes opensource and implements activityPub soon.
