A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I am not sure how to interpret "no more influencers" as anything but the primary upside.
Mostly that's a joke, but to be clear I do acknowledge that the same model that supports 'influencers' which I don't watch, also support creators that I do watch. On the other hand, most of the creators I care about already don't rely on ads, but accept donations via Patreon or equivalent, so maybe it wouldn't change anything after all!
