When I tried it in the past, I kinda didn't take it seriously because everything was confined to its instance, but now, there's full-featured global search and proper federation everywhere? Wow, I thought I heard there were some technical obstacles making it very unlikely, but now it's just there and works great! I asked ChatGPT and it says this feature was added 5 years ago! Really? I'm not sure how I didn't notice this sooner. Was it really there for so long? With flairs showing original instance where video comes from and everything?

What content have you produced for free? Do you consider yourself greedy when you cash your work paychecks?

I know first hand that making content is a lot of work

I've made and shared plenty of 3d models for the 3D printing community. People can certainly make it a job, and that's perfectly reasonable. But, I will never be interested in a community of for-profit model makers. If their goal is to make money off me, it's not a community, I'm just a customer. The point of the community is to learn and share information, to help people and be helped in return. If that time is 'work' for you, don't do it. Or make content and sell it on YouTube, do what you want, I'm just not interested in it.
