I can only tell you what I read it as: it’s about the current increase in regulations from the EU, this can be specifically read as a way to avoid getting regulated by DMA which aims to make any massively popular services have to have crossplay or compatibility methods that any other competitor can use.

It’s basically asking any service to have a standard way of interoperability with everyone else, which ActivityPub can be considered for social media, and Meta is using federating with ActivityPub based services while getting blocked by them as a plausibly deniable way of interoperability without actually having to do that because they’re blocked by most of the other services and they can surely find ways to block other popular servers by claiming that those servers are not doing as good of a job at moderating, allowing Meta to have their cake and eat it too basically.

I hope this helps, I tried to cover every possible way to explain it that I could think of. I tried to see if ChatGPT can help but I felt it was lacking.

Thanks for putting this in words, I had been struggling thinking about what was bothering me about this.

Maybe your ISP has some sort of agreement with yt?

Not even that, it’s like you ask for a number of someone you’re attracted to from their friend and they give you this survey asking why don’t you want their number instead

Easy solution, get a laptop with 32 GB RAM/s

Seriously though, the problem is either on both or on neither. It’s an additional expense on the customer though, like everything else nowadays. I personally ended up getting a super powered laptop/tablet and relying on it for all my computing needs because laptops are good enough for most use cases nowadays and desktops are limited to specific use cases.

Thinking about it though, the reason it’s only limited tasks needing more power might be because everything else is electron.
