    I burst into tears seeing this. Sesame Street is locked behind a paywall with HBO and Fred Rogers Productions went "NOPE" and made sure that the magic and compassion that Mr. Rogers taught is available to everyone, no matter your financial status. They're making sure underserved kids have access to education, and VERY important emotional education at that.

    Also, please remember that Mr. Rogers started saying he was feeding the fish because a little girl who was blind was worried he was forgetting. He made his show accessible before that was even an inkling of a thought in so many entertainers' heads.

    @Elindur I contend that Mr Rogers is an American saint.

    I imagine that the right wing hates him

      They would co-opt his legacy if they could. They're probably trying.

        @Elindur AFAIK, sesame street isn't locked behind a paywall, it's on youtube + they have their own website:
        https://www.sesamestreet.org
        There's also the excellent tiny desk concert so you too can have sunny days, sleeping the clouds away...

          Fox News called him an “evil man”: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/fox-fred-rogers-evil/

          For future reference, if you call Mister Rogers an evil man, he would still love you and try to find a way to help you feel better about what anger was making you feel that way.

              @Elindur

              Hurrah for Fred Rodgers Productions, its a gift, a real gift.

              The fediverse would be even better, not steering kids into awful youtube shyte, or surveillance, tracking or feeding ad money to google.

              But again hurrah for Fred Rogers Productions. The kids get Fred.

                  @Elindur He was a really great man. Mr. Roger's Neighborhood was never aired in my country. I was introduced to it by my fiance who lives in the US.

                    @Elindur I wish they started their own video fedi server, with discrete ad financing to get even a profit, OK, but that it wasn't on YT because of the associated risks all oligarchic nets mean these days. But I'll take any and all small victories.

                      @WeirdWriter @Elindur Yeah, the person who teaches you to be a good neighbor is an arch-villain. What a sinister idea.

                          @notyourfanboy @Elindur

                          The first episode that came up on YouTube when I searched was How People Make Crayons. It's about half an hour long, and has amassed 12 thousand views in the less than a day it's been online. On YouTube, they can do that for a maximum cost of zero dollars and zero cents. If it was hosted by Cloudflare Stream, this single episode would already have cost them 360 dollars or so, assuming they had managed to get such a large audience to visit their website in the first place. Building bespoke infrastructure just to host Mister Rogers' Neighbourhood and nothing else would cost enormously more. And the bigger their audience grows, the more expensive self-hosting becomes, while YouTube's cost to the uploader holds steady at absolutely nothing.

                          Don't get me wrong. I really, really wish they could. But the fact is, nobody has found a way to make online video work at scale yet without either charging the audience directly or throwing ads at them.

                            How long until the "government administration" pressures YT into pulling episodes... they need their own site with self hosted videos or at least something federated and distributed because well, I would hate if YT starts doing bullshit with it.

                              @Elindur this is good.

                              • I just wish the folks at @ZDF follow suit and not just upload Löwenzahn but also keep KiKa as FTA station on air way beyond 2033, because for many kids, this is propably the only non for-profit media they can access on their own!
                                • Maybe insteadvthey should cancel 5+ redundant WDR transponders which only differ from their "Aktuelle Stunde" [Regional News Bulletin] and instead have them rotate, or stop wasting millions if not billions on broadcasting rights for sportswashing like FIFA…

                                  @bongmaster @Elindur The felon's administration happened. It takes money to produce and PBS no longer has it.

                                  Thank everyone voting GOP for all our nation's losses.

                                    @Elindur AFAIK, sesame street isn't locked behind a paywall, it's on youtube + they have their own website:
                                    https://www.sesamestreet.org
                                    There's also the excellent tiny desk concert so you too can have sunny days, sleeping the clouds away...

                                    @gusseting @Elindur It was a "timed exclusive" deal, with the newest season on HBO only before moving to other places, though English Wikipedia claims the show has moved to Netflix for first runs.

                                    Sesame Street is not leaving free-to-air channels like PBS; episodes are just coming out a bit later.

                                      I burst into tears seeing this. Sesame Street is locked behind a paywall with HBO and Fred Rogers Productions went "NOPE" and made sure that the magic and compassion that Mr. Rogers taught is available to everyone, no matter your financial status. They're making sure underserved kids have access to education, and VERY important emotional education at that.

                                      Also, please remember that Mr. Rogers started saying he was feeding the fish because a little girl who was blind was worried he was forgetting. He made his show accessible before that was even an inkling of a thought in so many entertainers' heads.
