    Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.

"films are gonna die because YOU aren't out at indie film festivals!" Which doesnt make much sense.

Probably why I didn't say that then, huh? Neither did I suggest you go beyond your fiscal means. But if new ideas in media is something you want, which you said, then the only way that happens is with people making a point to support it how they can outside the mainstream. You sticking solely to your home media server does nothing of use for the people making the content you're demanding.

Well its happening, seems people will continue to create whether I can afford to participate or not. Interesting how that works. Like I'm not the only person in the world so attacking me specifically for not going but still saying hey maybe we should have new shit, is just ridiculous lmao but k feel better or whatever
