At one point Jason talks about how tragic it is that it takes a death for the council to do something about making a road safer.
Which is definitely true, but gods even that makes me wish I had a council as good as the ones in Montreal. Brisbane City Council doesn’t even give a fuck when there is a death. There can be a cyclist die on a road where safety advocates have been saying for years there’s a dire need for safety upgrades, and they still won’t even countenance improving the safety. They’d rather spend council resources repeatedly removing the ghost bikes set up at the location memorialising the killed cyclist.
Yeah at least put a disclaimer in the title if you’re gonna post paywalled links
Edit: Actually this is kinda against feddit.nl rules, since ads is banned
There is a YouTube channel with the same name, mostly same content, for free
:)
Too many hipster buzzwords, I’ll pass.
I aint paying to watch this video
That’s not the video. This is supplementary material to that one. I believe he references this video a few times in that one (and he definitely references “the main video” many times in this one).

Well you could start by reading the title.
What the fuck is your problem?

What are you even doing in this community if you don’t like Jason’s videos?

You’re pissed at me for linking to a video by Not Just Bikes on the platform the creator of Not Just Bikes partially owns and which is the only source available for that video, on the Not Just Bikes community? Dude pull your fucking head in. If you don’t want to watch it, then just don’t watch it. There’s absolutely no call for the arseholish behaviour you’ve been exhibiting in this thread.
If you’re brand new to NJB, then sincerely, welcome. Don’t watch this video, it’s not aimed at you. There’s a reason he only put it up on Nebula. I’d highly recommend checking out more of the videos available on his public YouTube channel. I might recommend starting with his video on “stroads” or why suburbia is a bad place for kids to grow up.
There are also great videos on similar topics from the channels “CityNerd”, “City Beautiful”, and “RM Transit", all of which are also on Nebula in addition to YouTube. And “Oh the Urbanity” has a bit more of a liberal (as opposed to progressive) streak, but are largely good for urbanism as well, on YouTube only.
As far as Nebula goes, you should absolutely not sign up for it unless you’re already a fan of at least some of the creators on the platform. It’s basically like a super-patreon where you pay to support a larger number of creators under one payment, in exchange for exclusive videos, videos earlier, and no ads. Aside from the excellent suite of urbanist creators, there are also news channels (TLDR News), videos about people’s professions (lawyer Legal Eagle, doctor Medlife Crisis, therapist Georgia Dow), media analysis (Lindsay Ellis—exclusively, since the harassment campaign got severe enough to drive her off YouTube—Sarah Z, Patrick H Willems), games shows (travel show Jet Lag, Yugioh gameshow Chaos Corp, game theory experiment Tom Scott’s Money), among many other subjects and channels. Nebula is good deal if only two or three of the channels on it interest you, and you want to financially support them, avoid ads, and/or get early/exclusive content. If there aren’t, you shouldn’t feel bad about not subscribing, but there’s still no call for that sort of attitude towards it.
So you got triggered by a paywall and instead of closing the browser/tab you decided to waste more time to come back here and carry on a conversation bitching about being trigger by the paywall.
You gotta be out of your God damn mind if you think I’m gonna pay to watch some dork ride their bike around.
First of all, if you don’t wanna watch it, you could just…not watch it? No need to vice signal by announcing it to the whole world.
But second, you don’t pay for Nebula to watch this one video. You pay for Nebula as a way to support the dozens of creators on the platform, including many of the best urbanist channels including the one whose community you are currently visiting. And to get this and all the other Nebula-exclusive videos on the platform, most of which are merely addendums to public YouTube videos, but some of which are full exclusives. And to get all the videos ad-free.
So don’t watch it, what is the problem ?
The problem is OP not having a disclaimer that the video is not free. Its one thing to post free videos, no one expects a paid video on Lemmy.
deleted by creator
Why would we not expect someone to share a video from a payed platform ? Maybe the problem is the expectation; nowhere in any rule of any kind is it written that Lemmy is to share Free content only.
Do you suggest to add some kind of “[Paywall]” to the title of the post as community often do with news articles requiring subscription for example ?
How about in the top of the initial comment he made “This video cannot be accessed until you subscribe to …” Then show where to pay for it or something. Not hard, less misleading, all around supports the creators even more
Not hard
Not hard, that’s true, I agree 100%
However the problem here is to have the idea to do so. It seems obvious to you, but I can’t see why. Nothing told OP to do anything for posting that link (neither Feddit.nl neither this community rules). He may just not had the idea to precise that this content was needing a paid subscription to be accessed
Less misleading
You know, Nebula is where NJB post most of their videos (if you watched any of his video on Youtube in the last 2 years you should know). It’s just logical at some point to get Nebula content shared on this very community.
And yes I can’t access it because I haven’t got Nebula subscription. But I’ll still enjoy discussing about it, see what others thought about it, the good, the bad, what’s around the subject… Like any discussion about a recent movie or Netflix series that I obviously need to pay to watch; do we need to precise that it isn’t free ?
If you didn’t know it wasn’t free, once you open any Nebula link, it will be written in big. All explained and understandable by everyone. I can’t see where anyone have been mislead
This kind of content is fully expected and there is no rule to tell us to do something about it for now
