So you are saying Mastodon won't take off because people need to choose a server but also because having a "default" where majority will ptobably end up is bad - but this is literally the solution to the problem you mentioned

I feel like they mainly had to listen to the feedback they were getting. More feedback won't save you if you ignore it

I used to be in the same boat as OP, but since trying to degoogle I (obvioisly) stopped buying Premium and instead buy into Patreon of select creators. If there was some sort of degoogled Youtube Premium that would go towards support of people I watch, I'd much rather opt for that (obviously a very theoretical proposition) - I can support only so many via Patreon, even if all would have a 1$ tier.

Of course, when buying Premium part of my motivation was my comfort. It was comfortable support via Premium or uncomfortable support via ads. Patreon is fine but you can't feasibly pay for one for every creator who's video you watched

I'd take that tbh

I meant no disrespect. I was mainly thinking pre-Vista, possibly pre-XP. Certainly didn't expect someone in their 20s to be around Win 95. Maybe I'm just seeing myself older than I actually am.

Understandable, uses witcher font

 

So I mostly transitioned to Piped and ever since I was wondering how it works. I read up on it and while I get what it says, I still don't feel like I really understand...

 

So I considering switching to Piped, but I'm wondering if the views (or other metrics) are counted on Youtube itself. I don't like the idea I'm kinda "robbing" the content creators I enjoy...

I think I know the answer but would like to know for sure.

 

There was this legendary comment on reddit to a thread asking people what would their plan be if they were immortal and got milion dollars, but there was a superintelligent immortal snail also with milion dollars who would want to kill them. I was trying to find it but as far as I can tell OP removed it. Does anyone here have it and could post it here by any chance?
