After attending LTX I was interested in subscribing to a couple channels on floatplane but I was mistaken on the pricing.
I think $5 is too much to ask for the content regardless of whether it's LTT or UFD etc..
2 or 3 channels of tech videos, even with the exclusives, is a netflix subscription and with all respect to the creators they are not nearly equivalent.
I'd subscribe at the $2-$3 level (and had actually, since cancelled), but not more than that.
That's just my two cents and I understand the value proposition will be different for different people.
