Piracy should be used whenever you don’t want to pay for something

You sound like you’d be ok with physical theft from a mom-pop-shop as long as you get something for free. It’s not in the spirit of the piracy community.

Imagine trying to be morally righteous on a Piracy community…. Piracy ≠ Stealing

You sound like you’ve just made up an unrelated example to dog whistle

With that attitude I hope somebody steals your TV and computer because they don’t want to pay for one. There is a massive difference between pirating from HBO or from LTT. It’s the difference between stealing from Walmart or stealing from an old lady’s bakery. You’re a shit person.

It’s the same as sneaking into a show for your favorite small band. Your lack of paying for a ticket isn’t depriving someone of a product, but you’re a dick for not supporting them. The difference is that the actors and writers of movies and TV shows get paid the same whether or not you pirate. Someone smaller like LTT should be supported if you can afford to do so. Piracy is about freedom of information, unrestricted media, convenience, and not supporting big bad companies. If you think it’s just about free stuff then you’re more dimwitted than ever. Of course I like free, but that’s not the point.

Besides money you mean.

I don’t mind shorting a predatory carrier or production studio, but I don’t care to short the people who make content I want: if they don’t make money they don’t make content and we don’t get to consume it.

Piracy doesn’t deprive anyone of goods.

It does when they can’t keep running the service anymore because your broke asses won’t support it.

It’s a small platform that costs a lot to run. Attempting to provide a fair and ethical alternative to YouTube.

Don’t use the service unless you’re going to support it.

LTT is not a small platform. Let him suck it up.

Spotify and YouTube cost a lot to run, do you block ads or pay for premium?

In the grand scheme of the media industry, they are. Moreover, Floatplane is a separate entity with < 50k users.

I don’t use Spotify, but yes, I pay for YouTube premium (which comes with YouTube Music, which I use instead of Spotify). I use YouTube a lot. $13.99 is not that much money for so much video and music content.

And I’m not saying don’t pirate anything ever. But come on, when people build a platform to try and do things right, to ethically support their creators, we ought to support those platforms.
