Or, they are just looking for people who are comfortable in front of a camera, have some editing skills, and know how to make an interesting <1 minute video - which is a pretty desirable skill depending on who you ask.

Who cares how it's built if it solves a problem for people?

Bitcoin's "magic property" is the faith that the miners have. It has been hardforked, but the majority of computing power has chosen to stay on Bitcoin.

All of the code is here https://github.com/lbryio

The blockchain is C++ (bitcoin fork)

The SDK is python

The apps are JS (desktop/lbry.tv/odysee.com), and java/swift for mobile apps.

The disk space issue is definitely something that has been talked about for a while. https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-sdk/issues/1311. As the lead maintainer of https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-desktop, it's the last issue I'm waiting on before the 1.0 release!

Yes, but I've lived here for 20 years and have never run into one while camping/canoeing. They are more active (but still sparse) in the Upper Peninsula.
