Yeah and I wish we could remove Trump from this world. Not happening either. Fuck humanity, we all deserve what we'll get.

I guess then we have to agree to disagree.

It's all FOSS. Whoever gets doubts about the devs can check the source or have it checked by experts. They sell out or die? Switch to other frontends or forks. I'd never trust any dev blindly, but if I can choose between these ones and Google... well.

Switched to piped/invidious. There are even a few good apps like Libretube or Freetube. No need to waste time with scripts and stuff.

Good thing I'm running my LLMs locally on a heavily encrypted PC with no network capabilities at all. Only way to not have my data siphoned, be it by hackers or big tech.

Did anyone seriously believe in a different outcome?

Time to dig out my old horrorpunk discs again.

This. The more popular it gets, the more people come, the more trolls and idiots are beneath them, the more toxic everything gets...

Advertisements and fake news will also skyrocket once the user bases are big enough to become adequate breeding grounds for them.

When I still used YouTube it recommended me crap I could hardly have cared less about or even things I actually disliked.

To me, Youtube was always synonymous for faulty algorithms.
