    Isnt Lemmy proving otherwise? But yeah, keep paying Spotify because “convenience” and I’ll keep buying albums on bandcamp because it’s the only current fair option.

      We are an extremely small bubble, comparable in size to your average 2008 internet forum.

        So what? It’s a user controlled platform that is convenient, proving it’s possible.

      Small fee boatloads of content or small fee per music small music selection. You do you, but the masses don’t align with your approach.

          Yes, keep doing you. As I said. Not sure why you’re taking this so personally.

            Lol, I don’t take it personally, I just don’t get what you’re doing here with that kind of resigned capitalist enabling discourse. You would be better on facebook or twitter. People like you like consumption, not music.

              Understood, you’re not here for discourse you’re here to proselytize and grandstand. Best of luck.

                I didn’t wanted to sound rude, my bad.

                I’m here because I believe capitalism and big corporations are the main cause of inequality. Projects like Lemmy, Mastodon, Peertube proved to me that user controlled social media and streaming plateform really do work. It just needs to be scaled. With a little momentum, we soon will be able to entirely bybass the GAFAM ecosystem and deveooppe a fair revenu model. But its true that in tye current state of things, the masses are still in traditional corporate model, therefor my commentary.
