I wish some of that money found its way to small youtubers who don't qualify for monetization and are just uploading for the fun of it. Those youtubers are my favorite since it feels more like the old YouTube or stuff like lemmy or whatever where people share without expectation of anything back other than just being excited.

I think they know people who aren't paying already won't buy it, so they are raising prices on those that found enough value in it to use it. There is YouTube music bundled with it that some like, so seems like smart strategy to me.

My TV has airplay support built into it so I haven't needed to get an Apple TV. But you do need an Apple device to use Airplay.

Even twitch has work around so they are welcomed to keep trying until they are successful.

I use safari with adguard + sponsor block which lets me airplay videos to the TV. I don't even have the YouTube app installed. No need to try and set up smarttubenext or whatever on the TV.

sponsored posts, suggested posts

I had hated that aspect of Twitter which is what chased me away to stopping use of an actual account altogether and settling for nitter instead to keep track of accounts but no longer participating. But, it was so much better with how clean it was with apps like Fritter or RSS done through nitter instances so I only saw what I wanted. Now that's looking like method is reaching its end.

The clutter they tried to push on me wasn't worth consuming the material the official way anymore.

It was what killed Instagram for me years back too when they killed chronological feeds. Then I deleted the account and moved to using barnista to follow accounts without an account. Then that died and I just dropped Instagram altogether and didn't look back, since I wasn't going to make an account again and consume things the official way.

I wonder what percentage of the ones who were protesting the api but chose to stay and be active on reddit ended up downloading the official app.

Bowser needs a hug.

Need to kill off rss too.

One by one dominoes that made reddit awesome are falling. Wonder if Spez has the courage to require being signed in to view reddit content.

This is looking like it'll be a valuable tool I'll use frequently.

Ah yeah, keyboards has been one area that has been pretty notorious in that area with so many group buys and keycaps people wait years for.

I don't even know what is going on in there since you need to app to even see anything , and there's no way I'm downloading threads on my phone.

What about pets?

Chrono Trigger is an absolute classic. I'll listen to the full soundtrack often. When playing other games actually.

Has anyone tried the Underwood Ranches siracha? I think they were the original supplier. Wondered if it is spicier like how I imagined Siaracha to be like long ago.

I just got a cheap brother laser printer and the toner seems to last forever.

I don't do pre-orders so Kickstarter which seem even more uncertain have not appealed to me. But, established companies doing it feels extra weird.

The electricity bill makes me hate summer.

Absolutely because I'm not a fan of the heat, and actually much less active during the summer because it takes longer for the outside to cool down enough where it's more comfortable than being with AC.
