Crummy streaming. Why isn't this on YouTube?
- eloisant 3y agoDo you really need to ask? It's the GNU project we're talking about!
- nesarkvechnep 3y agoThink about it once more.
- hk__2 3y ago> Think about it once more. There’s nothing to think more; the FSF should use YouTube or similar services as mirrors so people can watch the videos even when their website is hammered down by the HN crowd. You can hardly argue that the current situation where nobody can watch the video is a good idea.
- taway1237 3y agoThe FSF is ideologically opposed to youtube and other proprietary services. They don't want to use it and will not use it. It's their work and they have no obligation to you - it's like going to a vegan party, complaining they have no food you like and demanding they order some hamburgers for you. There's nothing to think more, the FSF shouldn't use YouTube or similar services.

There's nothing to think more, the FSF shouldn't use YouTube or similar services. It definitely should, but it doesn’t want to. That’s two different things. The goal of the FSF is to promote free software; that they don’t want to do it through proprietary mediums is obviously a legitimate choice, but that doesn’t make it intelligent.
