- Comment on The youtube algorithm is so bad, I say to my screen "why the fuck would I care about this!?" like 10 times a day. 2 weeks ago:
Tell me about it… Started clicking “Do not recommend this channel” solely based on the thumbnail - if there is trump, musk or anything political, I clicked the button. Recently I started noticing pro Chinese “propaganda” which is something I don’t want to watch either.
My solution: sticking mainly to subscribed channels and if I don’t see anything I want to watch I’ll try the YouTube feed algorithm.
I need YouTube word filter or figure out how to do the same I did for Lemmy and reddit in ublock custom filters. Example I found for reddit which works for me: reddit.com##article[aria-label]:has-text(/tesla|trump|vance|biden|republic|democrat|conservative|senate|congress|candidate|politic|healthcare|capitalism|billionaire|inflation|corporation|greed|tariff/i)
I’d love the same thing for YouTube, but I don’t know how to configure it.
- Comment on Europe proposes backdoors in encrypted platforms under new security strategy 5 weeks ago:
L after L in EU. Yesterday it was butchering GDPR, today it’s putting backdoors in end to end encryption. What is next? The normal people can only take so much before they start burning shit and poking holes with pitchforks.
- Comment on Europe’s GDPR privacy law is headed for red tape bonfire within ‘weeks’ 5 weeks ago:
What?!? Please no! Can someone explain to me how this will help the businesses, because I don’t see the downsides from GDPR?
- Comment on Internet Archive played crucial role in tracking shady CDC data removals 2 months ago:
A couple years ago I read that Filecoin has teamed up with the internet archive to synchronize the data on the Blockchain. I’m not sure how far they are yet, but it’s something that could work if it doesn’t turn out to be just crypto hype in the end.
