Comment on I've noticed my boomer parents using Instagram and tik tok. I can't tell you how excited I am for them to kill those platforms like they did facebook.

  And new creators take their place, if you’re only seeing shit on YouTube it’s because you’re only subscribed to shit.

    Tell me you’re out of touch without telling me you’re out of touch. Most of the good creators only upload once in a blue moon nowadays. The search feature is completely useless. Dislikes have been removed, so you can’t easily filter garbage anymore. Shorts, a toxic form of content, is getting pushed down users’ throats. Their UI is getting worse all the time…

      I have no trouble finding good content and if you don’t use the official app or use it in your browser you can just disable shorts.

        Have you considered that your definition of “good content” might be shit?

    Heaps of content creators sold out to advertising interests and degraded their own platform. Not that I blame them really, money always talks

    And new creators take their place, if you’re only seeing shit on YouTube it’s because you’re only subscribed to shit.

    To be fair, a lot of the good ones have moved over to, or always has been on, Nebula. (I’m not getting paid for pitching Nebula, just stating.)

    In essence, you’re both right, to some degree, but not completely.
