@valkyrie Exactly the same as with which out of snobbish Elitism rather wants to shit with asshole-level rather than improve content quality and switch to , , or even single-article purchases...

@GreenFire imagine if :activitypub: instance would offer such tiers via :patreon: , , or :paypal: like the "priority queue" on 2b2t.

One thing we've to also account for is that and are the only ways to get restrictions lifted, and I'm quite convinced major news outlets like @heiseonline or @ntv got those for free as they would've likely threatened to quit if they can't continue to use their toolchain to post stuff...

@juddlegum My problem is that a lot of stuff is very hamfisted.

If / is less convenient that , they I won't use nor pay for it in any form.

I'm not gonna subscribe just to read a single article and I'll definitely not pay more than the full price for a printed version.

For those that are too elitist for , & , there are a gazillion providers offering payment via , or even & Credit/Debit Cards!

@chrisheuer @escapadesrpg @TomLarrow

And since that doesn't prevent me from reading it on my device of choice, I prefer that.

So it's big corporate media's intentional choice to patronize and annoy potential customers with shitty and bs. payment methods that are more inconvenient that buying a variant.

Same with websites: Instead of ads and tracking, they could just use , & like everyone else.

@chrisheuer @TomLarrow Yes and No.

I think it's big & established mainstream medias' unwillingness to rethink monetarization and do what most modern creators do:
Use better options like , , & Co.

Even worse: is usually offered at worse terms than just out of spite:
I can buy a newspaper once and keep the copy ad-inifinitium but oftentimes they dark-pattern users into subscriptions that cost more than a print copy!

@ttk Ich finde allzuoft shice weil's kein bringt.

Statt , & sollten auch traditionelle Modelle Lösungen wie , , & Co. nutzen oder einen genauso bequemen anbieten wie die Printausgabe.

Also konsequent billiger als mit der Option auf der - natürlich alles -frei als & !

[können ja zur Not jene Seiten watermarken um Piraterie zu verfolgen!]

If on , , & Co. can use modern [aka. , , , ...] then those big media should not be allowed to be sloppy...
