And that, kids, is why you should pirate. Paying customers are restricted and being ripped off. Piracy gives freedom, it pays off, it makes sure you dont have to agree to stupid user agreements which take away you rights. Make sure to support your favorite creators though, through other platforms like Patreon. Don’t take the money away from them. Just take away the power and control away from the evil mega corps like Google and Meta.

The awesome algorithm for recommendations on YouTube was turned off to prevent fake news bubbles. This means that when you listen to a song and want YouTube to create a Playlist with similar artists for you, this doesn’t work anymore. But this function does still work with YouTube music.

Oooh you mean Elon Musk? xD
- Comment on Has this aged poorly? 5 days ago:
Did he became famous with an explosion? Did he affect millions? Is he still affecting many? Is he so legendary he will be around for a few hundred years? Does he have elephant feet? Does he own land where no one but him is allowed to live? Did the USSR try to hide him?
- Comment on Youtube has fully blocked Invidious 5 days ago:
It has its own like and dislike system, so it’s not cluttered by yt bots.
- Comment on Youtube has fully blocked Invidious 5 days ago:
Sure, that works too, however with grayjay you can follow creaters across platforms. So in case someone’s account gets banned by YouTube due to whatever bullshit reason, you can continue following them on other platforms. Next to that you won’t get spammed with Shorts junk. If you want to download a video to watch it offline, you can actually watch it offline (you don’t require a connection like with YouTube to watch something offline)

They also can use sponsors in the video, but that only works when you have enough views.
- Comment on Youtube has fully blocked Invidious 5 days ago:
You can still watch YouTube without ads using grayjay.app including sponsor block.
Thanks to Louis Rossman

- Comment on YouTube confirms your pause screen is now fair game for ads 1 week ago:
Yeah, that may be so, but priorities man. Priorities! Think of our profits man! In this harsh economy, ever ad counts! We’re only controlling 90% of the internet while we strive for 100%. That’s 10% short. 10%! We only had a revenue of 305 billion in 2023 which is not nearly enough to cut down on ads. Billionaire lives matter man! Come on, everybody, say it all together: Make millionaires billionaires again! Billionaires first! Meemaws don’t consume enough anyway. Screw her. By the way, want some penis enlargement pills?
- Comment on Ford Chairman & CEO Jim Farley Wakes After Decade-long Nap, Shocked By China's EVs - CleanTechnica 1 week ago:
You mean cheaper and worse, there are little to no regulations and if there are any, inspectors are paid off as China is corrupt AF. and the cheaper part is because the general factory workers are kept extremity poor to uphold the cheap labor, next to the Uyghurs in concentration camps who are forced to work for free. There are no rights or regulations for factory workers, so no protective clothing or gear, no safe work environment, while working with extremity toxic materials as those are cheaper then the safer alternatives. Working 12 to 16 hours per day, as young as 8 years old, 6 to 7 days a week, no sick days, no holidays. There is no quality control. There is media control, so every online post of a spontaneously combusted EV, which are maaaaany, is removed.
So you confuse quality with quantity. Yeah, it’s cheaper. But at what cost. Not just the lives of the Chinese workers, those toxins are also in the products we use.

- Comment on Does your Duolingo app icon look sick? You're not alone 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, in settings under site settings you can disable JS. You have full control on what websites are allowed and what not. There are loads of privacy settings and visual customization options to make it truly your browser. It’s also the best browser for desptops imo. I love the gesture function and the hot key search options you can make. Like for instance, I linked the imdb search bar to “I” key, so when I type I the address bar “I poor things” it will search ‘poor things’ on imdb. The only extensions I have on my pc are YouTube sponsor block and Proton pass, my password manager. The more third party extensions you have, the more your data is sold. Nothing is for free. We are the product.

Just Vivaldi browser. Has everything included. From ad block to dark mode. No third party apps needed. Image

“criticism from X owner Elon Musk who said that free speech in Europe was under attack.”
Comes from the guy who bans certain words and anything negative about him on X. Oh the irony.

- Comment on ISP to Supreme Court: We shouldn’t have to disconnect users accused of piracy 5 weeks ago:
Here in NL the ISP’s are refusing to give client info to the government due to privacy policy, giving a big “go fuck yourself” to any agency trying to convict internet pirates. A judge needs to sign for an ISP to release information on soneone, which only happens with large criminal cases like drug sales and child porn distribution. The fight to change the law so ISP’s are forced to release all client info has been going on for years and years now, constantly ending in favor of privacy. ISP’s are asshole companies lurking for your money, but at least they protect client privacy over here.
