I want to suggest to YouTubers that on a Peertube, you can say fuck, you can claim fair use when it’s fair use, you can talk about Israel and Gaza with the full words, you can play video games that show adult concepts, etc.
I don’t think people realize by now how much pressure on their thinking has come from the idea they might get demonetized. And you’ll still have Patreon.
Youtube has its problems, its also a modern miracle. Seriously the fact that it exists at all is insane. Youtube is the post 2000 public library for wanting to learn about damn near anything.
Written is a superior form 🤷♂️
If reading is like eating, then watching a video is the tube feeding thing (the tube that they put through your nose).
Video is simply superior when my brain’s at 50%.
If it’s pure entertainment then sure. But when your brain is at 50% is when video is potentially the most harmful, you’re less able to resist whatever narrative they might be pushing.
