May I suggest reading a book
Comment on YouTube ads are about to get even longer and they’ll be unskippable

Why even watch YouTube anymore? I might even do something no one would think they would do: download an offline AI slop generator. Slightly better than staring at a wall.

Are you and I watching the same YouTube? People are making really cool stuff, as they always have and always will, and that stuff happens to be in YouTube right now.

Ads are getting worse, too bad, it was good while it lasted.

I haven’t watched an ad on YouTube in years.

Honestly debatable. I’ve seen more and more good channels depart or stop posting, or others gradually turn into “react” content channels that only discuss tiktok drama or politics. Even so-called Breadtube for smaller channels has become synonymous with that embedded stereotype.
I compared a screenshot I took of my subscriptions feed from a year ago to now and was startled by the amount of change in incendiary content. It’s like the definition of doomscrolling.
I used to spend over 4 hours a day on youtube just watching video essays and skit comedy, but now I split most of that time across writing, itch.io, and catching up on anime. I have so much more free time I finally decided to start One Piece lmao (might try finishing Bleach too)
