Here is a some what related video, $200000 to Mobility Independence Foundation; Thomas Quiter's guide through the wheelchair industry - Louis Rossmann. It a pretty long video at 1 hour and 11 minutes but I felt it was worth the watch because my unfamiliarity with the topic.

It looks like everyone but the original developer has been laid off according to this Verge article.

I would recommend using their website I personally found it more easily navigable.

2 Years of updates was my reason. Samsung is up to 7,Apple is about 5 or 6 and Google is 7 years.

Note this is based off of my memory so I could be wrong.

This would be a time saver if Spotify was a part of the initiative because currently I'm migrating from Spotify over to YouTube Music.

I have some guess as to why there isn't much adoption of av1 by the torrent release groups and sorry for the lack of spell check and double checking fact since it's late for me.

1. They don't care about av1.
2. Speed: it takes longer to encode a av1 video than either of the other codecs and also add the fact that they might not have GPU hardware acceleration for av1. Nvida just added it to there four thousand series.(note: I'm aware that GPU hardware acceleration give worse results than only using CPU.)
3. Limited device support. I sometimes throw a movie on a USB drive into a TV that does support anything but h264.
4. Unfamiliar with av1 so they would won't put the time and effort to find the sweet spot they like (don't fix what isn't broken). And also add the fact storage was and might be getting cheaper so av1 seems less necessary. (Note: av1 main point was to save bandwidth. My guess is pricay video streamers will enjoy it more than the torrent groups.)
5. They might dislike av1's compression artifacts. I gotten use to h264 and h265, sometimes when I watch an av1 encoded video It takes me out of the Immersion but that can be fixed with time.
6. Lack of guides. (Not entirely sure but could be a factor.)
7. Might had a previous bad experience with av1 and haven't looked back.
8. There might but less newer torrent releases group. (This seems unrelated but I have notice that they usually are the first to adopt new codecs.)

Note: I like av1 but I haven't found it outstanding for anime other than crazy low bit rates and from what I remember it is great with high resolution video which anime isn't know for.

I don't re-encode my rips but I might use it for transcoding for Jellyfin when ever set that up.

Ever since I read this Article I have been wanting to delete my GitHub account and migrate over to another platform. I would give a summary but I'm incapable of doing so.

If this info is outdated or misinformation then please let me know.

I not entirely sure but from what I can remember Andreas Kling is seen using Mac-os in a Ladybird update video so it could be possible that it is his main operating system. Take this with a grain of salt.

What was the original domain?

Do you have any exact statements from them? Because I would like to know more.

I rarely hear about authors/artists talk about copyright other than, when they talk about what license they use or them complaining because they felt that their work wasn't infringing on other artists copyright since it was transformative.

How long do you think copyright should be? It was originally 14 years in the United States.

The length of copyright protection depends on several factors. Generally, for most works created after 1978, protection lasts for the life of the author plus 70 years. For anonymous works, pseudonymous works, or works made for hire, the copyright term is 95 years from the year of first publication or 120 years from creation, whichever comes first.

The max that I would ever be happy with is 25, but 20 or 17 preferred for me at least. I think it gives plenty of time for a Series completion.
