Incidentally, I am also implementing a three strikes policy - as in I'll still using your website after seeing this shit three times.

I'm sorry for youtube-addicted. On my part, I use it, maybe, twice per year, so I couldn't care less.

I want to abandon the shit platform but its just so nice like in my lunch breaks at work or just after work, whack on some YouTube, and I can watch gaming, I can watch tech, I can watch really niche tech, I can watch people fixing cars, I can watch an Aussie dude fuck around with his nuggets, like these people are genuinely interesting and make genuinely good content, but there’s no decentralized or otherwise separate YouTube-like platform they upload to elsewhere.

Sure, Nebula has thought provoking videos, Floatplane has a few, Odysee has a few more but there’ll be that niche YouTuber who does videos on vintage Macs that I’m in the mood for, and back onto YouTube I go.

It’s scarily difficult to get off it. I want to, and maybe I will if things get so shit it’s borderline unusable, but I think Google knows how to boil the frog and unfortunately that’s the reality of it all.

I envy you not having YouTube as something you don’t use often. YouTube was genuinely at least a decent platform over 10 years ago when I joined it, and I’ve been hooked on it since, every single shit change they make.

    What's old is new again, I guess.

    Also not something I'm looking forward to. I wish it were feasible to run your own.

    Not many have good calendar and contact list integration, especially if you're using an android smart phone.

    You've convinced me to check them out... it looks promising.

    I wonder if I can link proton to the android contacts list somehow.
