#ucps — Public Fediverse posts

This is probably one of the best articles I’ve read describing #DanielleSmith’s and the #UCP’s ideological bent. Don’t be thrown by the title, it’s more descriptive of the Hydian typology her politics is made of!! 🇨🇦 #Cdnpoli #ABpoli #Ableg open.substack.com/pub/markhamh...

Is Danielle Smith a Monster?

@Chigaze @Jeneric

Changes to the Local Authorities Election Act that banned tabulators came into force May 15, 2025 … giving municipalities 5 months to completely rewrite their election procedures, practices, hiring, and training.

And now that people are dealing with the inevitable chaos caused by the #UCPs dunderheaded move, they will immediately spin this as cities and towns being incompetent, and will use it to justify still more meddling. I expect initial disparaging comments Tuesday if not sooner.

@touaregtweet @rbreich Indeed it is. In #Canada, we see the same project, especially in #DougFord's #Ontario and the #UCPs #Alberta. In #onpoli, as well as underfunding the public and privatizing the #education system, its about distractions with booze and gambling.

@PaGn
Me too. I was not aware of this initiative, so thanks for sharing. Would be really good to support artists directly by streaming them

@drnaturegirl @clowncollege European streaming service Deezer has started an initiative to move to #UCPS (User Centric Payment System).

If a universal music sub service starts offering that kind of model I will quit #Spotify instantly.

I don't know the contractual conditions of the other providers - but as #Deezer pays out 70% of the revenue to the labels - how can that be worse than the old $1 CD deals? #ucps

N'étant pas spécialiste de la question je me garderai bien d'avoir un avis tranché ^^

En tout cas le système de répartition des revenus du stream et la part qui va aux intermédiaires me semble complètement démesurée, et il est peut-être là le plus gros du problème.

Je n'ai pas étudié tous les avantages ou éventuels inconvénients du #ucps (User Centric Payement System) mais cela semble sur le papier être déjà une meilleure répartition des revenus des streams.
