Recently lbry lost to the sec and stated they will die out. What does this mean? Will lbry desktop stop being developed? Will posted videos disappear?

LBRY Inc. noted that while the company is on its last legs, the underlying protocol and blockchain behind the content platform will carry on.

- cointelegraph

So the company will cede to exist but due to the decentralized nature of blockchains it is likely the content will remain there as long as there are peers with a copy of the blockchain and torrent files.

Regarding the app I'd guess volunteers will keep developing it.
