So we need to make it easier for mods to moderate? Better Modtools?

And now LG wants to sell you a subscription on top of that 💀
- Comment on “AI took my job, literally”—Gizmodo fires Spanish staff amid switch to AI translator 9 months ago:
This is exactly what I was thinking. People need to start understanding this and evolve to stay ahead of what jobs AI can now take. And also Spanish is a really easy language to learn, so I’m not surprised that a machine could perform the same task easily

“dang it Tom. You had ONE job to check the code works reliably and you missed testing that part of the code!”

Missed the point on the first one. The focus was on how Tesla wasn’t leaking your privacy unnecessarily, not autopilot. Also autopilot doesn’t need to be perfect - if the miles per crashes is lower than a human then it is more safer whether you like it or not.

- Comment on 'Kids Online Safety Act' will deliberately target trans content, senator admits. 9 months ago:
Yeah the 1st amendment has gone out the window here. (on the other hand, why are they pushing the lgtbtq movement on kids. Kids aren’t smart at all and won’t understand the deeper meaning…)
- Comment on Why are people hyped about RSS regaining relevance? 9 months ago:
Same here, I have removed the home page (using ReVanced) so it automatically loads my subscriptions, as I found those has far better videos than my home feed at all. Homepage has really died, I keep getting the same videos I already watched, some obscure 39 views video keep annoying me and because I use YouTube music I also get recommended music, except they have like 100 views. It’s just so terrible.
I think YouTube has been disabling the homepage, so you are more intrigued to enable it. But it really just makes your and my lives easier. Either way it’s the only way to really enjoy the videos nowadays. Hopefully another platform comes along, but that hasn’t happened at all in over 20 years
- Comment on Why are people hyped about RSS regaining relevance? 9 months ago:
Sounds interesting, especially with the fact you can comment on it. Only issue is getting sites to adopt it, and currently RSS is just dead simple to implement.
- Comment on Why are people hyped about RSS regaining relevance? 9 months ago:
Wasn’t that how YouTube used to work tho? Still I think it’s better discovering new channels, but that makes it harder for the new users I suppose
- Comment on Why are people hyped about RSS regaining relevance? 9 months ago:
For me it has to do with this
- I want a feed that updates based on my subscription
- That subscription content could be anything, blog posts, updates on a Wikipedia page (to keep up to date with a news story that is out of the limelight), or get updated with a XKCD comic
RSS meets both these, dead simple. It’s also low in data usage, but it’s for those reasons that I recently started using RSS after leaving it years ago.
P.S. I believe some blame goes toward “fragmentation”, i.e. we still need to check a couple of websites for something new. RSS solves that by bringing all that into one place
- Comment on Some veteran YouTube staff think Shorts might ruin YouTube 9 months ago:
Yeah honestly these are some great points, and really it’s one of these reasons as to why I just dislike modern journalism today with the headlines as such.
