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.

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.

Makes sense. Best way to push even more product placements on us.

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.

Doom, Wolfenstein 3D and Elite back in the mid-90s. Jagged Alliance 2 and Fallout 2 a few years later got me finally hooked.

Thanks.

I’m curious as well. I’d appreciate it if someone could share the mentioned post.

Well, shit. I liked them for being so open and communicative. Good thing I switched instances just right before that happened.
