People keep saying they want an alternative to YouTube, but then reject every alternative that exists.

Odyssee and other YouTube alternatives tend to host far right content because that content was banned on YouTube, so those creators flocked to the alternative platforms. The sites themselves aren't exactly encouraging that content, it's just where people end up due to the loose rules. The best way to fight extremism on an alternative platform is to post less extreme content and drown out the less desirable content.

That's basically what happened here on Lemmy. At the start, it was mostly tankies and far left extremists, and gradually it became more mainstream as more mainstream leftists ditched Reddit and joined Lemmy.

If you want an alternative to YouTube to succeed, you need to use alternative platforms that already exist.

The jobs do exist, and I'm pretty sure the young men are working them, but the jobs also kinda suck.

I really like the Ys games, and I think Y's Origin meets those requirements. The boss fights are difficult, but no crazy difficulty spikes, provided you've been killing things properly along the way. I only had to grind for a few min for one boss, and that's back because I actively avoided the mobs and ended up underleveled.

Zelda games tend to also be really well designed, pretty much any will do.

Would you rather use the same contraction for both? Because "its" for "it is" is an even worse break from proper grammar IMO.

Sure, but other platforms do exist, and he could post to those as well as YouTube. Other creators do, such as Gardiner Bryant to PeerTube and Louis Rossmann to Odyssee.

If he really hated Google, wouldn't he be motivated to invest his time into its competitors? Maybe he does, idk, I didn't watch the video because I'm not a fan of his style and I generally try to avoid YouTube.

Same, but this isn't that, so I won't bother.

Need to throw in a randomizer:

    
while true; do
    curl http://copilot/?query=what+is+the+time+in+RANDOM+seconds
    sleep 10; done
done

  

Yup! Most of my wishlist is on sale.

How can he be done with Google and still posting YouTube videos?

Reminds me of Wallace's smile:

Why is it Valve’s job to make sure that legacy 32-bit games continue to run? They’re not the vendor of the game, and they’re not the vendor of the OS.

They have a responsibility to ensure that games they sell continue to work. They ship libraries on Linux so there's a common base, and they should also do so for 32-bit games. GOG does this for older games using things like dosbox or whatever, and Steam should follow suit.

Why would I use a launcher if it doesn't launch games?

Can you get by with web access? That's what I do and it's fine.

Maybe? It depends on what exactly the app checks for. Some apps don't work because they check if it's running on the original ROM. It's hit or miss.

If you can access what you need through the web, you can go that route instead.

It's the only flavor that matters. 😉

From dark gray to slightly darker gray.

mv will save you some disk space.

I don't think there's a hole deep enough to keep them safe.

Fudge?

Also chocolate.
