Grayjay - Follow Creators, Not Platforms
grayjay.app
Grayjay is a unique media application that revolutionizes the relationship between content creators and their audience. Our app democratizes the content delivery process, shifting the focus from platforms to creators themselves.

Watched Louis Rossman today, and he’s part of the team behind a new app for watching online video content - not just youtube, but nebula, peertube, twitch and more.

adblock already integrated, works amazingly with a quick test on my end - it’s an app in the Lemmy spirit

(it’s got a paid model similar to winrar, you don’t have to pay - but they do want you to - opensource and all)

    FUTO Temporary License (FTL) violates the following open-source principles:

    • Open source licenses must allow free redistribution. FTL allows license suspension and termination at any time, without notice, for any or no reason.
    • Open source licenses must allow source code distribution. FTL allows restrictions to access the code at any time, without notice, for any or no reason.
    • Open source licenses must allow modifications. FTL allows modifications only for non-commercial use, or maybe not even that. FTL dodges the word modifications here, no clue.
    • Open source licenses must explicitly allow distribution of software built from modified source code. FTL forbids distribution of software built from modified source code for commercial use.
    • Open source licenses must not discriminate against persons/groups and fields of endeavor. FTL allows license suspension and termination at any time, without notice, for any or no reason.

    The FTL enables the following practices:

    • Copyright holders can change the license terms.
    • Copyright holders can re-license everything.
    • Copyright holders can target specific groups and individuals with discriminatory license terms.
    • Copyright holders can close source everything.
    • Copyright holders can forbid specific groups and individuals from using their work.

      Wow, this is a high quality comment.

      I guess it’s understandable to be concerned about licensing when putting money and work into a project like this, but I still hope they change their mind.
