FWIW, Gabe’s argument isn’t against subscriptions. The point in that quote is that legal access to content curbs piracy. Piracy will of course always exist, but there’s also customers that are willing to pay if is convenient and accessible.
A flat tax system would resolve a lot of this.
Why is that crazy? If I loan the bank money and they make money on my loan I should get paid for it.
My guess is that Lemmy is a new platform. The fediverse is also new to most people (myself included) and that leads to people genuinely replying to posts instead of trolling around.

Something along the lines of “Luna” or Lunar” would fit well because of the inspiration from the Apollo app, and the fact that our moon is a satellite. The satellite metaphor could tie into supporting the broader fediverse while the app itself is the satellite. I also like other space related names like Orbit, Portal, or Transport.
I’m not a fan of the name “Badger”.
Elon is a rich con artist.
