when is Google going to allow Safari on ChromeOS? :)

i have one on my key ring :D

seems fair

lol. There are a couple of options that don't suck.

I started with freetube - https://freetubeapp.io/ - it's a decent cross platform client.

https://invidious.io is pretty cool

But I like an app, and since I'm in the Apple ecosystem I'm currently playing with Play on all my devices - https://apps.apple.com/au/app/play-save-videos-watch-later/id1596506190 It allows you to stack videos for later viewing, categorize them and then play them back via Invidious

I'm also looking at running my own Invidious server

I'll admit that I've started watching youtube videos via filtering anonymisers so they really have no idea what I'm watching ¯_(ツ)_/¯ makes little difference to me, probably makes a small difference to the content creators but I ain't watching no ads and I ain't giving Google tracking data

every site (well not every site obviously) has their place and their time. I remember MySpace but I do not miss it

i was mostly a lurker but good call. will search while it's an option!

sure it can. since deleting all accounts the only reason I ever visit Reddit these days is because of search. so yeah make sure I never have a reason to come back

well technically they probably were - when they exploded

deleted my account on Sunday. never going back.
