Yeah. I never really watched shorts, but I recently started watching them and I get tons of right-wing/red-pill shit in there despite clicking on "dont recommend this channel" (or whatever it says) on like 50 of those types of channels.

I've been doing basically the same thing on a QNAP NAS slowly as I find time to learn.
My current setup is NAS with a docker running Jellyfin (Plex alternative that is FOSS and also better in my opinion). I setup a reverse-proxy via https to Jellyfin on the NAS.
I have VPN+Prowlarr+Radarr+Sonarr+Lidarr+qBittorrent setup on my PC and uploading locally to the NAS for Jellyfin.
I have a domain purchased and using DDNS to point the url to my IP, though that doesn't appear to be working properly right now.
So as is, it works quite well at least on my local network, but when I find the time I'll get the domain working so I can properly login to Jellyfin remotely with it. Then next up is moving the torrent setup onto the NAS in it's own docker stack.
My NAS also has two physical network interfaces so I'm also going to setup the other one to be exclusively a VPN connection so I can let different docker stacks use different network interfaces. (VPN for torrent docker stack and non-VPN for remoting into the NAS or something. I'm not sure yet.)
Exactly. I don't know if it's still the case, but AFAIK even YT has always operated at a loss. Google (or Alphabet) pays the difference from their other profits because YT offers other indirect value to them such as market share and potential future profits.
I just took a look at one of the most popular recent "mutiny posts" and wow, it really has gone to shit. I get that some people might not care about the API mess, but they actively hate the mods there. Half the comments are just unhinged and are still upvoted.
There was even an unabashed antivaxer comment from some guy drawing some sort of insane comparisons between mrna and r/Piracy mods and even that was upvoted lol
I don't know if the numbers back this up but I hope that the reason for this is just that the reasonable people moved to Lemmy and it's just the crazies left there...
Most people here obviously have already given up on Reddit so it's easy for you to say it doesn't matter. I do agree that it's unlikely Reddit will change their stance, but the protests have certainly had an effect and continued protests will as well. Just look at the amount of news coverage it has gotten. I do think there's still a chance Reddit makes some small concessions. Probably not enough that people here (or myself) would care, but it's certainly not nothing. If nothing else it hurts Reddit's reputation, which is relevant especially with them trying to go publicly traded as a company.
I agree. I'm also a bit of a completionist by nature so it's doubly as painful since I can't just do the main story...
I have gotten a bit better about it in the last few years to be fair. Though sometimes I relapse and realize I've wasted 80% of my free time that day doing mediocre side content.
