How do you think Youtube is supposed to survive without ads or subscriptions?

Not my problem? Ads aren’t even an issue for most people. Short ad in the beginning or unobtrusive banner? That’s fine. 5 min unskippable ads on a 10 min video and popups? That’s when I stop giving a shit about whether your platform goes bankrupt or not and turn on adblock.

Because they don’t want men staring at them when they’re in tight gym outfit working out? Again completely different than fucking chess.

It is not unethical to choose what kind of traffic I want to allow on my device.

Or you actually own your device and can block fucking ads.

So just because there are existing shitty addicts who don’t give a shit means we shouldn’t try to discourage new people from starting? None of the warning labels are for people who have been using for 20 years. They’re for people who think about trying for the first time.

I’m an adult and I can not make a choice to not have that shit blown in my face on the street. The biggest issue with cigarettes isn’t that it’s harmful to the user, it’s that it’s harmful to everyone around too.

I can’t comment how harder or easier it is, but all shows and movies released on any streaming service are available within hours. So I’m guessing it’s not that hard.

Prices needs to go up a little bit every year to reflect CPI and inflation.

So should salaries, but that ain’t happening. All services are increasing in price. Food has increased in price like 50% or more over the last year you bet I’m reevaluating if I need a subscription every time the price increases. And if I cancel I’m not only saving the increased amount, I’m saving the entire subscription cost.

How to make the most annoying, shitty player with no options and customizability which lags on any device. Money please!

Just use picard?

Stating facts isn’t defamation.

At the very least it would hide filename in cloud storage so no one would know that it’s a file with all your passwords.

Personally I don’t put anything in cloud storage unencrypted so I’d still just encrypt that file client side with the rest of them if I used keepassx.

Miss haystack, get broken ribs.

There are diver watches with replaceable batteries. Probably most of them in fact. The reason these irreplaceable batteries became popular isn’t because they’re more waterproof, it’s because it’s just easier to do. Still perfectly possible to have decently waterproof phone with a replaceable battery. It’s not like we didn’t have such phones back in the day.

I know it’s hard to accept but walling yourself off from everybody else is not the right way to go.

Everybody or just scummy mega corporations that we know for a fact have been scummy for decades and will continue to be that way and also have incentive to EEE this?

They can want. Doesn’t mean they should be allowed to.
