Stop using youtube.
EDIT: A lot of people real fuckin triggered by this and looking for any excuse to keep using. Fucking addicts.
What else has such a catalog? Going to be hard to persuade creators to host their own content with ads and subscriptions.
Maybe people could read more?
Nobody needs this endless "content" slop.
For real people need to get a grip if they can't survive without it. They're addicted.
totally agree with reading more. text is easy to consume, easy to store, (somewhat) easy to verify (if sources are provided), and it keeps (if using dead trees for storage). ever since the pandemic i started reading more and must say i really like it
Some content lends itself well to written format. Lots of content does not.
absolutely agree. i just wanted to point out that not everything has to be a video
Hell yeah. Let's hear it for the readers. Let's hear it for footnotes. Let's hear it for references. Let's hear it for bibliographies. Let's hear it for the more in depth ideas that can be explored via text than video or audio.
