  • Currently going through it right now w/ YouTube.

    Started using alternative front-ends and was able to really curate my feed to be more productive. Now, Google is cracking down on the front-ends even when I cycle through different instances. So far I'm telling myself that even my productive feed wasn't that productive, but I'll probably take some of the info to heart in this thread and reevaluate a few things.

  • I listen to a LOT of podcasts and their chemistry is unrivaled. It's popularity has made both of them 'go-to' sources for tech as of late and so they often get scoops/interviews on top of their banter as well.

  • There's a general selection bias in the fediverse, and the idea of decentralizing power is pretty communistic and also pretty beneficial to people who feel oppressed (transgenders).

    Most new waves have a strong bias when you think about it. For example, crypto has a strong tilt towards Libertarianism and deregulation

  • I'm still using public instances for now. I started w/ Piped but the buffer speed was lacking for most of the instances I used. Switched to Invidious and the buffer speed as amazing, albeit a lot more error messages that Google is blocking an instance temporariliy

  • Similar thought process for me. The only downside I've experienced thus far is that once or twice a week, I'll get error messages when I try to interact w/ content (upvote/boost/etc).

    I think I'll likely create another account when Threads joins the federation but kbin.social chooses to defederate 🤔
