Invidious or Piped are great options, that also let you hide all the distractions like suggested videos, the toxic dumpster fire that's the comments section, and so on. Piped even implements SponsorBlock without needing to install the addon.

Google told 404 Media in a statement that “All advertisers must comply with all applicable laws and regulations as well as our Google Ads policies, and when we identify ads or advertisers that violate these policies, we will take appropriate action.” The company said it had removed CMG from the Partners Program after a Google review. Amazon told 404 Media in a statement that “Amazon Ads has never worked with CMG on this program and has no plans to do so.” The company added that if it becomes aware that a partner is in violation of its marketing guidelines, it may take what it sees as appropriate action.

so yeah, sounds like the company's claims might not be completely true if they're boasting about working with Amazon.

who needs to keep changing a chat program? IRC has been around since the 1980s or so and still works fine.

some people like texting their family who doesn't use IRC, and they'd rather not send messages in plain text for one reason or another.

Sure, Signal can't give out the contents of messages, but it still has the chain of contact.

it doesn't. they've been ordered to hand over data multiple times, and the only thing tied to the phone number they have is 1. time the account has been created and 2. last time the account connected to the server: https://signal.org/bigbrother/

"Idiot" is a slur that roughly means the same thing

"idiot", "moron", "cretin" and "imbecile" were all medical terms once and described different levels of intellectual disability, but they fell out of use and are now considered offensive. language changes, and context is important.

does not have channels

except that it does. you can make a public group with a shareable link, and change permissions so that only the admins can post.
