You're correct and much more reasonable than I am. I've learned from you, thank you.

df tube (distraction-free youtube): toggleable options that allow hiding the recommendation feed and featured videos on the homepage, so as to reduce distractions.

To those who allow their free time to be consumed by youtube because they consider it to be a good investment of their time since they're learning new things, please try this. You might realize that Youtube really just is a poisonous social media amongst all the others and that you really don't need the suggestions.

It's great that you're aware of it

threads really blew my mind

It really looks like the general population is actively looking for new ways to get their data harvested and their attention spans damaged. People are rejoicing over a new social media app (and it's from facebook of all companies!!!). They're rejoicing over a new poison and that's mind-blowing to me.

But then again I use Lemmy so who am I to talk? (Whilst Lemmy is an improvement from most other social networks, I still consider any social media use to be a detriment to my life)

Oh, I... see...

that's uh... not necessarily a good thing.

I agree with you

It's more accurate to Hasekura's vision? If you have the time, could you elaborate on that? I haven't read and don't know much about the author.

High number of people concerned about privacy?? There's, like, 5 of us unfortunately.

Isn't it that they don't wanna get spammed with BS under 30 characters and didn't think to leave out a "None of these answers" checkbox?

Alright, thanks, I'm not sure what I'm going to do but I'll see.

I use Nyaa.si to download manga volumes which I then transfer to my Kobo Libra 2 e-reader, but downloading individual chapters weekly is too much work, so I prefer to read currently publishing manga on my Hisense Touch (android e-reader) from online sources through a reader app like tachiyomi

Alright, I see, thanks.
