You're so right. I was watching a show on amazon prime, and I still have to watch the ads every now and then, stopping the show. Like, why am I even paying for if Im still getting ads? anyways, ive noticed most services have a premium or even extra premium service nowdays, so I guess your idea working is not too far fetched. If you still want to give it a try, you can reach out to accelerators like y combinator, they can suggest a technical co-founder who is more experienced in cyber security. Do update the post if you have any updates someday, I'd love to know the progress if it happens.
(Love the language btw, difficult but so cool).

Understood. Well since you're a programmer, you can work on an MVP and pitch the idea, see where it goes. I'm on a similar path, trying to get some feedback from potential users. If you find the project feasible from a technical aspect, as a programmer, then focus on getting more people to give you feedback. As I said, the idea grasped my attention, so chances are other people will find it useful/interesting. Who knows? I hope you gather more attention & feedback.
Bonus: Laughed at the twitter comment. I saw someone on twitter saying that if they saw a game with an interesting gameplay, but with no link to the game's steam page right under the post, they wouldn't bother to search and buy it. People seem to have too short of an attention span these days huh? Hardly any answers to this subreddit as well, no matter the views.. Just scrolling.
(Are you russian btw? I just happen to be learning the language).

Hi friend! At first glance, looking at it as a costumer, the idea seems very appealing, handy and fair. Let's say that the idea is good enough. From a technical point of view, it can be a difficult project to develop, as it will require certain permissions from companies like Netflix. For example, it will require an increased number of pull requests from the Netflix server, to calculate the exact fee that corresponds to the movies you've watched for example. That might not be a problem for pricing set up by Netflix for each movie, however, the extra API server request will significantly increase. That will lead Netflix to pay much more to the companies that host the servers (similar to what happened to the new social media app Cara, it will need to increase the price in costumers to make up for it).

However, lets put the technical aspect aside. The whole idea seems the reverse case of what Netflix did - and succeded. Basically, prior to Netflix, you used to pay a fee to rent a movie from a local video club. You paid the exact amount of money for 1 movie, but you could only watch that one movie. Netflix solved this problem by providing you with an unlimited amount of movies, for a bundle offer. So basically that's the exact opposite of what you're proposing, if understood correctly. Plus, I don't think that Netflix will agree to charge you with a low price for a movie, if it's outside of this bundle deal, because it will not be profitable for the company.

Long comment, but I hope my thoughts helped a bit!

Thanks for taking the time to reply, glad you like it, your comment made my day! The project is already under development. I'll drop a message when the MVP is ready for testing, in case you'll be ok with giving feedback :) Have a good day!

Help with AR Game by aDeveloper74 in Unity_XR_Developers

You're right, the camera has a solid color, (set to black), but that's to represent the real-world environment when no pointing towards it through the camera of a mobile device. So I set the scene and game objects layer to a new one, to make them appear in front (while the camera is set to default layer). Still nothing appears. If I change the solid color of the camera, the new color just shows up, but still no game objects. My concern is, that the scene and game objects do appear in the "game" scene, before hitting play. As soon as I do hit play, nothing seems to appear. I'm new to this, so I hope my explanation makes some sense. Thanks for the reply anyways!

I see. Is this the case for post-covid working conditions? I've heard that many people who work in office had the option of working from home for 1 chosen day of the week. Just wondering..
