The benefits of having an old CRT and no/minimal interest in modern movies and series.
I just bought a used commercial display. IRS so nice to have a device who's only purpose is to be a display for your content.
For once I’m glad I only watch YouTube
If the content appeals to you I can recommend dropout.tv and Nebula.
WTF Yea! Now with YouTube no one can track you, or program your algorithm, or influence your content at all… Plus the nonstop ads…
You really got em!
NewPipe and Invidious
The content on it is still made to appease The Algorithm, no matter how you watch it
And books are written to make money. Doesn't mean I still don't enjoy reading them.
Depends on the channels you watch, tbh
And smart tube can bypass the ads and stuff… point is OP claimed YouTube as it is can be a cure…
It’s a red flag for ignorance.
What? By that I meant I remain unaffected by squabbles between streaming services
You are not considering freewill. Let the algorithm feed you whatever it serves, you don't have to bite.
“For once I’m glad I watch YouTube….”
Free will seems lost on you… Did you consider any sense of personal RESPONSIBILITY?
Damn! You nailed it. I was only typing what someone else told me to type. How did you know? If only you could provide more morally and ethically prudent advice to the rest of us then I think we could collectively usher in a new age of peace and mutual respect.
