Wait, what? Why's Vimeo fining people for having videos perform well on their platform? Don't they want that, or are they really configured as just a host?

Oh, they're not fining, they're just jacking up what you owe them based on metrics only they themselves know. Happened to Chuck from SF Debris too, it's why he went back to YouTube.

muscles like this! posted:https://twitter.com/JennyENicholson/status/1493345972386086916 Yeah apparently there's been a ton of Vimeo crackdowns/shakedowns in recent months. Some of it is Vimeo catering to corporate clients and just letting Youtubers slide some content on their platform that aggro IP holder or bots would eat alive until they hit a certain metric and need to be willing to pay out the nose for whatever Vimeo decides is the risk they pose. And Patreon is apparently hoping to deploy its own hosted video platform this year (instead of feeding Patreon videos through Vimeo lol) and Vimeo deciding they're going to need to milk this while they still have it. Also lol https://twitter.com/JennyENicholson/status/1493406251408969728 I guess another advantage of this scheme is that it guarantees that it culls anyone out who can't afford it and then they can move down the line to whoever falls into the "top 1%" after they drive anyone above them off the platform. egg tats posted:make sure you don't sleep on this guys kings quest 3 video. this might be the worst speedrun I've ever heard of Playing this game seems like an act of violence itself.

I can't believe actually getting a chance at momentum with popular creators putting their stuff on your hosting service, and you loving extort them instead of using it to your advantage to become a competitor with youtube at all.

Yeah I've heard a lot of similar weird poo poo with Vimeo, it sucks for creators and its not a particularly great platform for viewers either. Really sucks when you find out a streaming platform outsources to them too (Criterion and On Cinema for example)

In this space, approximately nobody can or wants to compete with YouTube. They have economies of scale unavailable to anybody who would want to go after them (short, incomplete list: Microsoft (Azure), AWS, Apple, and the major CDN providers like Akamai and CloudFlare), and none of those potential competitors have an established video advertising function. If YouTube offered private videos with an easy-to-use entitlement system, everybody else would be in real trouble. tracecomplete fucked around with this message at 04:03 on Feb 15, 2022 |

They're not interested in being a YouTube competitor. They want to offer their services out as hosts for private training seminars and movie screenings, or like Cold Milk Bottle mentioned they do promotional and back end video services. All stuff big corporations can afford and/or don't net a lot of viewers, so yeah maybe 2,000 views in a few months does push someone into their top 1%. Or they're fluffing the numbers because they want to see who pays and don't care about driving off YouTube people. Nuns with Guns fucked around with this message at 04:06 on Feb 15, 2022 |

I didn't see this posted earlier, but Lindsay Ellis was interviewed for a segment on the New Yorker podcast. She's... not doing well. https://www.newyorker.com/podcast/the-new-yorker-radio-hour/on-cancel-culture-and-the-state-of-free-speech I want to know who the hell it was that turned on her so I can stop giving them money and/or views, but I also recognize that all that would happen is anyone named would just get harassed relentlessly and Twitter would continue on as usual never learning a single lesson. Lindsay's in the first segment, I didn't honestly listen to the rest because the interviewer kinda... sucks. I just wanted to hear Lindsay and hoped she was doing better. She's not.

I'm kinda glad I don't appear to have reached that magical top 1% level. I guess this practice is a part of why Vimeo has managed to be around so long.

I absolutely was one of those people who only used Vimeo to semi-privately host college video projects, I had no idea they had such scummy business practices! I did find Lindsay's old college-era documentary project on there once, speaking of. Not sure if it's still available to watch but I remember it being a very effective and moving piece on her personal experience with abortion/the political climate surrounding it circa 2010 or so. Was a bit strange to watch back then given she was mostly known for The Nostalgia Chick at the time but I definitely appreciated it

Yeah, I listen to the New Yorker Radio Hour and was surprised to hear Lindsey in the first segment (I don’t think there’s much overlap between this thread and the New Yorker’s typical base). She sounds rough. She explicitly avoided naming names but it seems like the breaking point was people in her personal and professional life just refusing to talk with her and her feeling profoundly isolated. Then, every time she tried to address the controversy or apologize for past mistakes her feelings of isolation got worse. I don’t have anything interesting to say except that I hope she can get the help that she needs. Hopefully she’s disconnecting from Twitter and not, like most famous people, still operating a secret account.

Pretty sure it was some no-name, probably a sockpuppet. Kinda similar to what happened to Vinny. Speaking of which, I'm glad Vinny bounced back and I hope Lindsay can do the same.

Acerbatus posted:They made a big deal of diversity amongst the show staff and it was 100% white women. Of course all the outrage about HGS was moronic but also the woke spin on it was terrible. In general Crunchyroll talks a big game about that stuff but then barely ever does anything to actually promote it. Like they have the money to be the main moneysack for anime every now and then, and they almost always use that to fund generic power fantasy isekai anime. There's a ton of gay or trans related manga, or stuff by minority authors, that they could fund anime of if they actually wanted to. And I don't care if they don't, they're a business, but you don't get to talk about how progressive you are and then dedicate your time to making sure Reborn In Another World With A Ten Inch Dick has three seasons. And even if you do fund diverse stuff, please don't make a video tooting your own horn about it. Just do it. Endorph fucked around with this message at 18:54 on Feb 15, 2022 |

Rogersbase had a little dust up, and when I say little I mean extremely small, about his thumbnails. He actually responded to me: https://twitter.com/rogersbase/status/1493619226510180353?s=21 https://twitter.com/macaluso/status/1493634169255206912?s=21 Rogersbase seems like a very nice guy and I appreciate his response. What I don't understand is just how ANGRY some of the people in the replies are at the audacity for artists to to be respected and credited. It makes me sad how much a lot of people still don't care about crediting artists just because their stuff can show up on Google images Edit: I got a DM that said "god didn't give u permission to poo poo but you still do dont post art if u dnt want people to enjoy your art go make an nft".

There's an astounding number of people who feel very strongly that artists deserve nothing and should never ask for it. Usually said in the same breath that it's unfair an artist tried to charge them for art that they really wanted and deserve to have for free.

Its usually people who A) don't make art themselves in a way that is easily digested and moved on from (illustration, concept work, comics, fan art, etc etc. you know what i mean) so they don't have personal experience with the amount of time and work that can be put into that kind of thing or the amount of learning and development that led to being able to make art and B) for some reason think stealing or repurposing the art is "appreciating" or "enjoying" it. i've ran into a lot of people who like. they think that the default for artists is some kind of like. 'wow, they liked my art so much they did something with it! im so happy i made that  ', despite no actual evidence supporting that at all lol. so they react negatively whenever an artist (justfiably) is like 'hey dont use my art that way or steal it, i didnt approve of it' because they've already internalized that the artist "should" be happy the art is being used that way. (or, you know, they just dont give a poo poo and do whatever they want already, but those are usually pretty obvious from the drop)

Also, it is good to see this thread standing up for artists and copyright, since just a few weeks back everyone was on the "gently caress copyright, let streamers rebroadcast other people's videos" train.
