  • How come copyright owners are not legally required to distribute their work?

    Copyright is supposedly a deal society strikes with creatives: They create art for society and in return the law ensures that they profit off of their original works. If they no longer uphold their end of the bargain how come the rest of us should still uphold their copyright? If they no longer make their works available their copyright should be forfeit automatically.






  • For now reddit seems fine (even though I feel a noticable deterioration of multiple communities). Though the important change is that alternatives have established themselves. Lemmy might not be big right now but from now on reddit has to be extra careful not to upset redditors. Every new step they take that worsens the experience will drive a new wave of users away from their site and now more of them will find communities elsewhere that have been established during the first exodus this year.

    At the same time I’m unfortunately quite certain that the enshittification of reddit will continue as investors demand higher profits. So we will see more waves of redditors leaving. Such a migration in waves could also be observed with Twitter, after every new step that Elon took to ruin the site.

    Lasst ihn ruhig reden. Je mehr dieser pauschalen Jugendkritik kommt, desto legitimer wird gleichzeitig jede Boomerkritik. Zwischen “junge Menschen haben zu hohe Erwartungen ans Leben” und “die Boomergeneration hat dafür gesorgt, dass diese enttäuscht werden, es ihren Kindern voraussichtlich schlechter geht und selbst die Zukunft des Planeten auf der Kippe steht”, zwischen diesen Vorwürfen weiß ich welcher schwerer wiegt.
