God I hope my adbock holds up......

If it doesn't I will make something that records the entire f****** stream and removes the commercials out of it the old fashioned way If I have to. Not my first rodeo.

If it happens, and you do, host it, and set up a donation box too.

So you want someone to broadcast, and you're willing to pay for it, but not willing to support the content creators in any way?

[–] parpol@programming.dev 7 points 15 hours ago

I would happily watch ads if they were non-intrusive and non-interrupting ads like side banners that don't cause popups, or product placement inside videos.

I would also pay for a platform where 100% of the money goes to paying for hosting and paying the creators.

Neither of these things are happening, so yes, I would rather donate to support piracy.
