Clearly not from the up votes on my original comment. But I'm glad you could masturbate your ego there for a bit. Hope the dopamine helped.

Lemmy is so much worse than reddit for this antisocial shit, it's ridiculous. Only a handful of you seem to know how to continue a conversation without choosing to shoot snide remarks and condescension, then wonder why active users are dropping month over month.

I'll cry into my filled weekend social life and life partner of over a decade, you pegged me just so accurately. Super relevant username btw.

Dude, you specified a company and I pointed out their parent company instead. I agreed with your original statement just indicated a better target. In the future, in social situations, a person who isn't filled with angst would normally say something like "Oh you're right, good call" or "Yeah, that would work too." Something that adds to and continues the conversation instead of being a weird, defensive neckbeard about it. Have a good rest of your life, bud.

There's no reason that people should assume you meant Alphabet rather than Google? Seeing as you used "Google" rather than "Alphabet" as they're two different words. English is fun!

That needs to happen more with Alphabet than Google but either would be great.

I really want to see Peertube flourish but I'm just not sure it's going to work out. Video streaming platforms are a much different beast than the micro blogs of Mastodon or forums of Lemmy. But, this is a good step in that direction so good luck to them.

This site is not a part of the YouTube website or Alphabet. Additionally, this site is not endorsed by YouTube in any way.

Your random quote from a random website doesn't mean much against the experience of myself and others and how massively disliked videos still get tons of traffic. If you don't want to see certain content don't dislike, just keep moving and don't engage at all. My feed only improved after doing this, when I was disliking videos I kept getting the content I disliked. I didn't engage and now I don't see content I don't want to anymore.

I have never watched more than 10%

You gave 10% engagement and voted with your downvote! Double engagement!

As an Oregonian, yay!

I like visibility and accountability!

Let’s not pretend that all algorithms are the same.

But if we don't, how can we act superior to people who use algorithm based platforms? /s

Right on, actual helpful techniques/information instead of being condescending or belittling! It seems so rare in political threads, thank you.

An article on using the technique for those interested.

Too true. Thanks though Picard, that means a lot coming from such a prolific shit poster.

Better than being laid off right before Thanksgiving after almost a decade at the company 🙃
