@hazelnot you're right, also tough if you're very mobile, school, etc

@brood to add to what I said earlier and counteract the negativity, instead of everyone being their own librarian what would be much nicer to see would be small community-shared libraries of media, from a few friends to, idk, whoever, potentially a whole neighborhood if it scales well enough

@hazelnot i like that idea, like a co-op. i think of the history of UbuWeb. "rogue libraries".

@brood @hazelnot It’s hard to imagine sharing a bookshelf. Everyone has his own way of sorting out. What’s a tempting idea that community cloud could handle a fraction of someone else’s data so you wouldn’t have to keep full second copy in separate location but host pieces for someone else.

@brood @hazelnot Lets go further. You don’t need to be a nerd and have own rack. All you need is a small “Data Depot” run by a guy in an apartment building and a VPN tunel. Share the resources. Get data back to local communities. Even small local ISP could be that guy.

@hazelnot @brood Last time I tried that, my lawyer suggested we bring it down after Germany attacked Project Gutenberg due to differences in public domain laws.

So if you do something like this, it needs to be completely offline and underground.

@Longplay_Games @brood doesn't have to be completely offline, but definitely underground (until capitalism collapses)

I have the privilege of the means to host a jellyfin server full of movies/music/books for my friends. I think every friend group needs someone like that.
