bandwidth should be nationalized or otherwise a municipal public utility so people can compete easier tbh. We do this with roads, water, electricity, etc. Get libertarians on board with data privacy insurances at the federal level so big brother cant spy on public bandwidth. Massie and Rand Paul could buck for that
Not interested in those apps. Why are y’all thinking I’m a normie who watches YouTube on its official app with my account logged in and with all the ads
Personally i only use youtube to doomscroll “shorts” because I don’t have facebook, instagram or tik tok for that. It’s really no pleasure as such, but a good way to just turn wind down.
My main issue is that most of the information and knowledge that i used to get from reading blog posts, or forum threads, has become videos, with the majority of the content being irellevant
So infuriating… Sadly, I can’t even boycott YouTube because of how much good content it has
I pay for premium in a group of 6. We pay like 6€ each and get YouTube Music on top.
People are too used to free stuff. The amount of bandwidth YouTube requires is absolutely mindboggingly huge and can’t possibly be profitable.

You can try Morphe on your phone and SmartTube on your TV.
That’s still YouTube 😹😹
That way there are no ads and no fees, you become (in theory) a net negative to Google.
