I’ve declared my YT channel to be dormant starting on the 13th due to this AI age-gating crap.

I wanna see if YouTube is that stupid they send my 18+ year old YT account an age verification check. April 2007 feels like a long time ago…
Dumping YT / gMaps / Google SSO etc and replacing them bit by bit is a hard vice to break, but I’ve got others using self hosted shit now (yay Immich and Jellyseerr arr…) and I’ll keep on doing it for others too.

Knowing the corrupt pricks that Google are, I wouldn’t put that past them. The age-gating isn’t even about protecting the kids, it’s about censorship.
