It seems that everything turned into scams, aggressive self marketing and just click bait irrelevant content. I liked finance videos, but every creator sounds like “the world will end soon” or “my secret method to make 1 million per week day trading stocks/forex/crypto.”

Content aimed at culture (movies/series) also behave the same way, throwing a bit of politics into the mix. Always the same incendiary click bait title spewing a bunch of nonsense that has nothing the story, setting characters or other topics relevant to the piece.

Is there anything that can be saved on that platform? It has gotten so bad that I’m start to think that Tiktok and Twitter both have better content than YouTube. At least in those platforms you can find a random dude writing an essay in a series of 20 tweets on why an increase of mantis is related to the global surge of ballpoint pen prices.

    Cancel culture? Really? I suppose everything is woke to you too, huh? People that cry about cancel culture are people that don’t want to take responsibility for their words and actions. In other words, douchebags. Guess what, there are consequences to the things you do and say! You don’t just get to say and do whatever you want and then cry about cancel culture when people rightfully end up despising you. Your comment agedlikemilk, don’t be such an insecure little bitch about it.

    And many of the issues that I brought up for unsubscribing a month ago, like the conclusion jumping and poor research were the bulk of the GN video. He just saw the benchmark errors whereas I saw the Linux/Android/adblocking misinformation.

    And you’re right, it’s only been a few days. But boy oh boy, has it gotten worse over the last little bit as more and more piles on with harassment investigations and learning about the awful rabid LTT fanbase that drove a young boy and his mother to suicide. I wonder what else we’ll end up learning?

    But go ahead, keep on simping for your boy Linus, and crying about cancel culture.

      Crying? You’re the one getting worked up about it. I just like to spread positivity, and it’s clear that you don’t. Not my problem.

        Yeah, anyone that mentions cancel culture is a whiny little bitch in my opinion. And I’m not worked up at all, I feel vindicated in my conclusions if anything. You should reflect on why you got so insecure over an agedlikemilk comment… because you can state that you only like to spread positivity, but that’s not what I’m seeing from you.
