Comment on [HN] YouTube gets more aggressive in pushing adblock warnings with countdown timer
Hamartiogonic@sopuli.xyz 1 year agoThere are a few video producers I care about such as Undecided with Matt Ferrel and Veritasium. There are also privacy advocates, linux people, controversial political opinions, and unhinged conspiracy trash. So, there’s good, bad and ugly stuff to watch. Obviously a lot less than what YT currently has to offer, but spending less time watching videos is probably good for me in the long run anyway.
Actually I’m beginning to see a trend here. Mastodon feels a lot like Twitter in the early days. Lemmy feels a lot like the way Reddit used to. Odysee is a bit like YouTube once was a very long time ago.

I’ve cut down on YouTube a lot by deleting the app and only accessing it via the web browser.
I’m genuinely happy with that decision. This Reddit thing has really made me realize how much I don’t need all this social media and stuff.
