I'm not the post creator, but I'm one of the founders of Instill. I don't think it was intended as such as the HN crowd isn't really our target customer (non-technical health & fitness content creators who need a comprehensive / white glove solution to launching a subscription content platform, not people who can engage in a debate about the cheapest way to set up your own infra to stream videos haha). Ev had some interesting thoughts about Vimeo's huge shift which were informed by us having started this platform some months ago based in part on some pushpack from content creators on Vimeo. Of course, as an early startup, we will also take any attention we can get so I don't hate if this wound up being a little bit of both ;)
