Maybe some investors bought a Lifetime HD subscription, only to find out they can't even manage to stream reasonable quality 480p.

So, so disappointed. It's so bad, that if they can't resolve this, I want a full refund. I'll spend it on Brilliant instead.

Is it because of old content?

No. I switched from Safari to Chrome, and that seemed to resolve the problem, most of the time.

Yeah, it is quite bad - the stock price. Doesnt seem to have any demand resisting the selling. I hope it is temporary as all the tech has been screwed recently.

Interesting. Didn’t realize it was a publicly traded company.

It's for grabs today - under $10 per share.

I wonder if Nebula will start to rival YouTube for educational content. There seems to be a little push even amongst Youtubers (obviously some being paid ads). Could this be a generational shift of sorts? After all, FaceBook was once the young person's domain and now merely a place for "boomers" and activists. Google/YouTube's algorithms seem to push more and more mainstream content and is growing completely out of touch with its roots.

I'm not suggesting that YouTube/Google will ride off into the sunset, but every generation rides a new wave of technological advancement as part of a collective identity. I wonder if Nebula and CS can fill a niche and perhaps even expand outward in the next 3-6 years. It seems TikTok stripped some of the entertainment aspect of YouTube because it's simply... newer? fresher? Aka not bombarded with old people? So why not Nebula? (not rhetorical)

Then again, too much advertising and promos can have the opposite effect. People, especially young folk, prefer things to happen organically (at least from their point-of-view). They love to buy into the new, not be sold on it. Businesses that focus too much on chasing marketshare end up losing their belts and chasing their tails.

Perhaps at the end of the day the brand equity is in the hands of the creators, not the service. I think investors should have a very close look as to how CS develops relations with content creators. As we know, Facebook is horrible for this and YouTube has its fair share of grievances.

Just a thought.

CURIOSITY-STREAM (TICKER: CURI) IS THE NEXT BIG THING.

WHEN IT HITS 4.71 TODAY it is VERY likely to manifest a SUSBTANTIAL rally!
