For some reason I doubt that's a common practice with people hellbent on not seeing ads and not paying for the service.
Color me surprised if I'm wrong about that.
I use youtube music everyday as well as downloading videos on my phone to play without wifi. So maybe I do use some premium features, which may make me biased.
I and many tens of thousands of others use it for accurate and timely war updates. Where are we expected to go if Telegram starts censoring everything?
This could be catastrophic for the war effort online.
Edit: I should note that with the exception of illegal things, like child pornography, being made aware of to the owner of the platform they should have to act on that. That's excluded from the ramifications this will have on important matters. Any platform should be made to act IF they are made aware of such activities.
I went through the drive thru last year and spent almost $20 on 3 beef chalupas. The cashier looked puzzled before she told me the total lol. The one thing I want from that place, I knew it would cost me.
Not worth it afterwards, I decided.
Goddamn I want a chalupa
Sounds kinky
It's the only platform I still regularly engage with minus this, being lemmy, tildes, and watchpeopledie.tv/h/slavshit because I get a lot of interesting stuff to watch and people still come on there on their own to express themselves about stuff I care about. But yeah, the fact that YouTube weathered the onslaught of russian bots and kept all my UA supporting channels up earned my respect. Which it's a great way to keep up if you're not on Telegram, or are just depressed by the shit, I think it's a damn good platform. Best thing google has imo.
But to each their own. I'm not like the vast majority of people.
Edit: I've been suspicious of Mr. Beast for many years. The deadness behind the eyes clued me into him actually. No one that successful with that kinda look is squeaky clean. That's been the only thing besides the obvious this person is wealthy, probably not amazing, that's made me dislike his stuff. Also the clickbaity nature of his content.
Intercooler + wet towel got me about 30 minutes on Verruckt
Only when they become a recap of the subject for 90% of it do I get annoyed, lol.
I've never even thought to look into JP lore. But this is my front page now
I blame my office job
