Comment on YouTube's Ad Blocker Crackdown Is Getting Harder to Dodge

  They charge for FP ??! So these people on the podcast are paying to comment ! I didn’t know that…

  hmmm, that’s fine I’m not against content creators creating ways to monetize, I’m against supporting the ad business model and gaslighting people into believing “it’s working”…

  As for the content quality, I only watch LTT to see what crazy ideas and experiments they come up with, I never learned anything tho, because they don’t show you how they did it, Linus just says we’re going to build a server, and boom, it’s already done… ( they do it off camera ), I mean like details, installing the distro, and how to navigate it… Etc ( his team does it for him )

    You are looking for niche content. The last place to search for that would be a big YT channel since their videos are tailored for the general audience. I don’t know what you expected lol

      Well, don’t you think skipping major steps ( mind you ) renders the entire process unreproducible, or prone to error and failure ?

      I don’t know what you expected lol

      a Blog post would be appreciated, say : hey we skipped this ( very technical and confusing ) step, here’s the boring blog, enjoy…

      I’m just saying, their content is mostly entertaining, not educational, that’s how I find it personally.
