Yep.

I download concert videos I like from Youtube, less because I want to watch them all the time, but because eventually, some corporation is going to swoop in and delete it all.

Indirectly murdering hundreds of thousands of people in pursuit of profits.

You know, the same deal kind of applies about “losing newcomers”. Because I avooded using AWS because everything seemed cryptic and weird with its terminology. So other companies got my business.

Bottle Caps maybe.

Trade for other useful things. The “currency” part can literally be anything.

Yes, we understand all that.

$37 billion was thrown into a pile and burned, and now only exists on an excell spreadsheet of some already excessively wealthy asshole.

You almoat had me before "buy gold.’

Thats conspiracy nutter shit. You can’t eat gold. You can’t sleep in the shelter of gold. Gold won’t cure health problems.

I have my doubts.

If I understand right, Mitch (still a PoS person) was increasingly hating MAGA and Trump. If he actually was alive to have a say, he would probably support doing the special election just as a fuck you to MAGA.

GOP already does not want to acknowledge any voting outside of that one specific Tuesday during mostly working hours.

Generally speaking, hand grenades are self opening anyway.

Stick the loop in and use a tooth pick or something to pull it out.

Yeah, they see the writing on the wall as even the Idiot Cult is starting to turn against them.

They have been doing EXACTLY this scenario to all kinds of people who are even remotely “Mexican” for over a year and a half now.

People just… dissappear. They were “illegals”. Then there is no paper work and sometimes they shipped off to fuck knows where.

There is no “he”, its a “them.”

And FWIW, Trump is not even part of them. He is just a loud stooge distraction.

Chim, chimney

Chim, chimney

Chim, chim, cher-ee

A sweep is full of cancer

As full of cancer as you can be.

I want to say they recently laid off a bunch of people for AI coding despite pushing against AI music. Plus their owners are kind of increasingly Vulture Capitalisty.

I can’t find it at theoment but Insaw something on reddit and lined up a list of alternatices but of course, the alternative suggestions are even more smaller and niche.

I have had good luck with it and there is a pretty generous free tier I think if you want to try it.

I don’t use the app and disabled it. I watch via Firefox Mobile which has Ublock Origin. Also I run NextDNS, which I pay $2/month to, to block ads.

Similar set up on the desktop and laptop, though I also yt-dl a lot.

I also just, really hate video as a format for 99% of things. I MUCH prefer reading blogs and such. Most of my Youtube watching is concert videos. I love live music, even if its mediocre cell phone footage.

Oh yeah, and Spotify pays artist garbage. Its best to buy direct from their website or Bandcamp (on Bandcamp Fridays).

Though Bandcamp is starting to get enshitified.

I have no idea what you are even talking about because I basically never see ads anywhere.
