Of course it is, now fall back in line, citizen!

I'm going to park my horse in the office then, good point

I think you should've put TL;DR in the beginning, otherwise it looked like you're arguing cows don't fart, when you were actually about net effect.

I never thought about it from this side, but it makes sense, and seems like another way big corporations fuck the world up.

Only third party sync, I use Syncthing for that, works great most of the time

  1. What could've fit in a screen of text should not be a video at all
  2. I save videos for later all the time, I just watch them never
  3. If some information is not visual-first, and not entertainment, if it may be important to people and should be spread, it also better not be a video. Maybe accompanied by a video to make use of audience reach, if you already have a channel with an audience, that is.

I'm with you, I'd joke about circumcision (and maybe ran away 🥲)

The IP owner can print more, but if the owner is gone or legally unclear, then yes. Although I don't think this was the real intention, because greed looks like a simpler reason and fits

You're right that there is a lot of good content, too. The problem is that a platform doesn't care as long as you stay and watch, also you'll need quite a lot of effort to find your own good content. So when I come to YouTube for something and end up watching more, I always know that I failed to YouTube trying to rip me off

If only I could get addicted to something socially acceptable in under 35 minutes, like doing chores, or at least maths

Maybe you're right and it could work. I'm afraid there's always a share of sociopaths this will not affect, but this may be seen as impossible to fix anyway. What I am also afraid of is that the speed of changes is glacial in this model, and sometimes people are bullied into suicide in the course of mere weeks

Yeah, trusting someone to make right decisions is hard because this trust usually ends up being betrayed sooner or later.

Regarding the first part, I meant that we as a community can't put enough pressure on a bully to make em leave, if that bully is part of the community that supports em.
