Can you please tell me which ideology does criticizing the UI choices or the content strategy of a web streaming platforms belong to?

I am not looking for a platform to support my ideology, in fact I do not possess any ideology.

I am not talking about Netflix being a successful business either. Being profit driven does not justify false behavior.

Netflix has become an advertisement platform for certain companies/ideologies/people rather than a media streaming platform.

Which is a problem because it has no like/comment functionality that can (theoretically) filter false/exaggerated advertisement.

On the other hand, which media platform is actually not an advertisement platform? That's a whole another debate.

Ask HN: Any History Podcast Recommendations?

Posted by devfromanatolia on Monday July 26, 2021 @11:13AM
from the ask-hn dept.

Hello. I enjoy listening to history podcasts, but all I can find now is either about well-known topics (i.e discovery of America) or subtly reflecting the ideological opinions of the host.I want to find something objective and original. The topics don't need to be too niche. Do you have any recommendations? Thanks.

> I'm coming to the realisation that open source projects will always provide a lower quality than comerical ones.

Although you may be right, I prefer to be more optimistic. I think we tend to ignore the more successful premise of open source projects.

They (at their least) demonstrate people of a possibility of more sincere (more eco-friendly, user-friendly or budget-friendly) products and services.

'Li said back then, he was already worried that future technology would allow US filmmakers to digitally reproduce his moving body and superimpose the face of any actor onto it.

“I was thinking: I’ve been training my entire life. And we martial artists could only grow older. Yet they could own [my moves] as an intellectual property forever. So I said I couldn’t do that,” Li said.'

It is fascinating to see that at some point of any expertise, you start to respect the art itself more than any hard work you invest in it.
