1 year agoIt’s a lot harder to federate a YouTube competitor because storing all that video costs a lot more than text and links.
I wish they’d just insert the adverts into the videos so we could fast forward them if we wish. Why do we have to be locked into watching the same handful of adverts over and over.
They used to let us skip after 2 seconds and then it went from one advert to two. Now it’s two unskippable adverts. No wonder people want to block them.
I’ve noticed they’ve started using gig workers as well as the regular posties. Understandably the gig workers give less of a shit.
