Thing is, even with all their efforts they still can’t make it profitable. Not sure if they release the data (doubt). But, YouTube has always been barely profitable or operating on loss. Google bought yt over 15 years ago and haven’t figured out how to make money off it and arguably made it worse with their policies and algos.

How’s that? They’re just gonna block YouTube? Way to kill their own service.

I wouldn’t know because I use firefox. Fuck google.

Just delete every meta/fb app. There are plenty of alternatives now. They will never love you.

Good. I hope all the r/all reddit drones leave and maybe we can have actual discussions.

That they’re just the same annoying reddit drones from r/all. Smaller communities have much better dialogue as always.

Lol Those threads are a colossal shit fest, how would I even tell the difference between brigading and just business as usual?

I just think that defed should only be used as a last resort in fringe cases not the norm or lemmy instances all end up isolating and becoming echo chambers.

I literally only see threads/posts complaining about them, no actual trolling/brigading etc. But I’m not on Lemmy all the time. If it was such a problem you would think it would be clearly visible.

Isn’t that the whole point of federation and seperate community spaces? Don’t like what you see? Fuck off someplace else. I haven’t seen a single instance of brigading or amything like that. Is this just pearl clutching by reddit refuges?
