  • YouTube can burn.

    They generate more money than whole countries and you want to give them more? I don’t have to pay them shit for them to make money off of me from my browsing history alone.

    I would rather speed forward the enshittification to the point that all creators decide to strike and hop over collectively to another, kinder, video hosting site.

    In the meantime Google benefits from my viewing data/history and sells that over and over. They’re making money hand over fist and then when you pay them for a “premium” experience you’re just handing them more. You’re already a cash cow for them with just using the site. Screw that noise.

    Give directly to the creator.














  • I would be fine if YouTube crumbled and was put into second place by a better platform or two.

    Yes it’s the best option currently which is why they can do such ridiculous practices.

    But once they have actual competition, I expect them to bend over backwards for my attention. Because if they don’t change the current trajectory, they’ll go the way of the other digital giants of the past.

    Do not worry about having a viable platform in a future without YouTube. I am 100% sure there will be one.
