That was the original idea behind Hulu.
But Netflix had a much better UX and ate their lunch.

I was an avid Usenet user, until torrents were invented.
I’ve never needed to go back.
When they start getting lawyers involved. That’s how you know when it genuinely leaked, and wasn’t part of the publicity plan.
My bookmark goes directly to the subscription page. I never see the home page algorithm
Just some quick ideas. Some may be used already. I didn’t bother checking.
Can you curb your sensitivity?
You used the wrong word. Maybe you didn’t know. That’s fine. We all do it occasionally. No harm.
Now that you know better, you could simply show some grace and humility by saying “Thank you”. Then everyone could move on.
Have a good one
Actual pirate ships were very democratic generally. When splitting the bounty, everyone got an equal share. Maybe 2 shares for the navigator and 1.5 for the captain. But that’s it.
So while they didn’t care much for non-pirates, they certainly treated each other fairly.
Nearly all the rules members need to follow (which can vary from one tracker to another) are about seeding enough. That’s the main universal thing. Not allowing people to “Hit and Run”. For a member to do that, it typically takes dedicating some substantial drive space and seed time. Far more than most people are willing/able to dedicate. This allows the tracker to curate a large library of high quality material. That’s the primary ideology.
Secondary to that, it has the added benefit of making sure everyone involved is “cool”. Cool as in, not a nark who’s going to get people sued and the site shut down. That used to be a big issue. I don’t know if it is now. I’m kind of out of touch with public torrent sites.
As to why we’re insufferable elitists? What do you want me to say? Rulers’ gonna rule.
Until their users found out.
Even an audit is really just someone else saying “trust me bro”. You have some level of trust.
My confidence is inversely proportional to any evidence you have to the contrary.
They don’t keep a search history. Your searches aren’t tied to anything, because they aren’t even saved. They don’t have any reason to save them since they aren’t selling any targeted ads.
That’s why all the top results on every search are actual results, instead of a bunch of ads.
Totally worth it.
Kagi does it already.

Why is 2018 and 2021 skipped over?
You’re not alone.
On a good large screen, 1080p is a noticeable upgrade from 720p.
But the distance you’d have to sit at, to get much out of 2160p over 1080p, is just way too close.
However the High Dynamic Range that comes with 4K formats and releases IS a big difference.
On the other hand, storage is pretty cheep. A couple cents per GB really.
But you’re talking more about bandwidth, which can be expensive.
But yeah. You’re not alone.
