Hoopla is for library systems. We are rising up against public libraries now? I don't understand that and Tubi being on this. They are both free.
And Plex is for self hosted content. Maybe it's on the list because it's not open source but I still wouldn't put in the same group with Netflix Hulu and max.
Plex desperately wants to be more then just a self-hosted library solution, as that's often (though not exclusively) associated with piracy. They also have a free streaming service, similar to Tubi and Pluto, that can integrate with your own library.
Hoopla is normalizing surveillance capitalism. Sorry You’re not seeing that. Perhaps you didn’t watch the video?
What do you mean? I watched dunkey's weird video and I still don't understand. Hoopla is digital content from library's, free and available for anyone. I'm confused as to this standpoint you have.
I only saw the video and got triggered by all the corporate logos.
I’m not certain how people use those corporate videos through some library app but at the end of the day, any use of those apps benefits the corporation behind them.
What video?
