I’m unsure how to feel about that. There’s good content. But there’s also sooooooooooooooooo much trash. Horrible brain warping soul crushing propaganda slop farms
So just like traditional TV?
There’s much much worse on YouTube though.
No not really. Have you ever watched the dystopia wasteland that is day time TV?
Can’t afford TV license?
I wonder if it’s because of the license scheme?
YouTube being more popular is okayish. An overtake by TikTok would be worrying…
Wait until Trump Inc. weaponizes the American platforms against European democracies like China and Russia already do.
You mean like making meta shadowban anyone that speaks out against atrocities in the middle east, like how they use shitter to astroturf every one of their beliefs, or how they had to make their own version of facebook just for propaganda?
Why would the BBC watch youtube when they’ve got genocidal world leaders to propagandize for? /J
