Seeing the other post here about YouTuber that went downhill and seeing content creators I am familiar with makes me sad. But how about those that still makes great, high quality content?
So much agree on this. I also feel like there are comments on Reddit posted with the sole purpose of gaining upvotes. Here there is no need to do that so the content you do get is a lot higher level
Nowadays I find a lot of games feel like too much work and/or anxiety when I just want to relax for like, 30 minutes to an hour after a long day. On the other hand, the games specifically designed to help you unwind just feel boring imo....
I like newpipe. But it’s missing my feed with recommendedations etc, I just want the standard YouTube app with no ads ideally. Right now web browser with block is the only workaround?
Youtube let the other shoe drop in their end-stage enshittification this week. Last month, they required you to turn on Youtube History to view the feed of youtube videos recommendations. That seems reasonable, so I did it. But I delete my history every 1 week instead of every 3 months. So they don’t get much from my choices....
I mean, it makes sense no? They are a business after all. Why wouldn’t they try to enforce their ads? I personally don’t watch YT that much but why not just pay up if you need ad free experience? The content on YouTube is good because creators get paid well from ads
I was thinking about that when I was dropping my 6 year old off at some hobbies earlier - it’s pretty much expected to have learned how to ride a bicycle before starting school, and it massively expands the area you can go to by yourself. When she went to school by bicycle she can easily make a detour via a shop to spend some...
Kinda reverse, but when I moved to Singapore I was amazed by how few people knew how to cook their own food. But then again you can get a meal outside for 3-5 bucks so not really an issue
I just got a DIY kit quote for solar and it’s ~$18,000. That would mean a contractor installing is at least $25,000 if not more. That’s a big chunk of change upfront.
Solar really isn’t for the masses quite yet. If you do they math you will realise that it’s only a gimmick to get the 0 dollar electricity bills. The only reason I can see is to be able to go off the grid
To be fair, the only reason why YouTube got so big and stayed relevant is THANKS to the ads. Do you think there would be incentives for creators to create good content if there wasn’t as revenue?

It used to be that Apple wanted to have their own standard in part to be able to sell more cables. By switching now, is actually not stupid- everyone have to buy new cables again
Here it is. He says “Cindy and I are breaking up” - then proceeds with the review of Laphroaig 10 Year Single Malt Scotch, which he tells us has been his go-to single malt - it’s a “no compromise” Malt, he assures us.
Video is 8 years old, I think it’s a true story at least based on what I read. Also the fact that his own video doesn’t mention this in the thumbnail/title makes me think it’s real.
Sure, but why do you need Storage in the first place? I have always had less than 100gb and it’s plenty for all apps etc. Everything else goes in the cloud
Same, some of my posts were removed without being told why. For example /c/pics is apparently exclusive to photography which wasn’t at first obvious to me. Still - would be nice to be sent a message when mods remove it
Which YouTuber still creates high-quality videos to this day?
