If YouTube requires people to use adblockers that will be the start of another big platorm. The only thing is, is that many of these big YouTube channels get paid off and revenue, so they have no desire to move over to a different platform.

I think what we need to see is a humble platform, where there is no hunger for money, just the passion of putting out passionate content. Maybe even have a tip feature, so people can tip, but no ads.

Same goes with Facebook I’d love to see friendica or a new social media platform boom that is on the same vein, or better yet connects to different fediverse instances.

People need to all agree by the masses, that facebook is garbage, uninstall the app, and learn the ropes of a new platform.

Because of a generation gap, it would likely divide the older generation from the younger generation, as the older generation will be stuck feeding into Facebook. You would be surprised how many of them still watch TV.

It should have died years ago. So glad people by the masses have realized enough is enough.

It’s become a divide.

Pirates are more likely to end up on Lemmy, while streamers are more likely to remain on Reddit.

What I am saying is there are people who don’t care and will give their money and attention to easy to learn, and easy to consume services.

While the other people refuse to feed into corporate greed, and seek frugal affairs which require a little more time and patience.

Unfornately as I have been witnessing there are so many people who continue to use Reddit, and will always use Reddit. These are the people who probably started using Reddit within the past 5 years, and were unaware of third party apps.

The only Reddit they know is new Reddit, and Reddit through the app. Often these people will happily pay a monthly fee for no ads and premium features.

The long term users are the ones that have seen it through its stages, we remember when the upvotes and downvotes were accurate, and were instantly visible, we remember when there were less rules for posting, less bots, and accurate karma points on posts.

Now it’s all rigged, and AI driven.

The people who see through it, and want to get their voice back, and a sense of genuine community are the ones that end up on here.

Anyone who still continues to use Reddit I have less respect for, especially if they are aware of the alternatives.
