Oh that’s really annoying. All of the obvious hate for the official app aside, why would Reddit think it’s okay to take content and plaster a banner on it? I imagine people who uploaded nudes or original art were pissed.
Just trying to create communities on Lemmy.ml to help with the big migration.

Used reddit for like 15 years and never knew how people got that text on the bottom to begin with? How?
Maybe that app hasn’t included it. Connect for Lemmy has it, though.
Ironic. Apps let you save comments lol
Sounds like an American trend, not limited to any social media.
I know TikTok is a punching bag, but this is quite literally every social media platform. People have died from YouTube trends, Facebook trends, Reddit trends, Twitter trends, Instagram trends, etc.
If Lemmy pops off, I am sure people will be posting stupid Lemmy trends, too. It’s just an internet issue.
The only songs that have ever been removed from my library (Spotify shows you) are remixes/mashups where the person doing it never had permission.
Not really sure what you mean by you listen to what they propose? You search what you want, follow other people, listen to playlists you or other people have made.
Oh I don’t. I just move them there because Twitch deletes them after a few days. I don’t care about them, it’s just an easy 1 click button to save them on YouTube.
In fact I stopped relying on Google services when they banned the Terraria developers Google account and the only way he got it back was by canceling the Stadia release of Terraria.
Since that day, I switched to ProtonMail with a custom domain, immich.app, proton calendar, and more.
Realized that unless I have to power to potentially cost Google millions of dollars, Google won’t even look my way.
That’s interesting. My girlfriends old cat videos from over a decade ago are still there. She hasn’t logged into the account for years and years.
and they keep the original file as well as their converted file. So every video you upload is stored at least twice. Technically more, because popular videos are stored on multiple servers to ensure fast load times no matter where you live. It’s crazy. I would love to see a behind the scenes your of YouTube, and a live stat counter page. It would seem fake.
Fair point! However, your argument is almost more reason for Google to do it.
You find yourself on YouTube for those niche videos, which means you’re the kind of customer YouTube would benefit from getting rid of. A few dozen views from you per year to find niche videos, is not paying them anything, and is wasting a ton of storage. They want people who spend hours upon hours on YouTube per day, essentially replacing TV. Those who spend hours and hours on YouTube, are also generally watching popular videos, or videos that YouTube is recommending, which means a ton of ad views, or even YouTube Premium subscriptions.
I would absolutely be crushed if YouTube deleted all those random niche videos because I just used one last week to fix my car. Some random ass video showing a potential ground wire issue. I am not saying I want Google to do it, I don’t, but I am definitely shocked they aren’t.
I’m shocked they haven’t already. A good 95% of YouTube could be deleted and no one would notice, and would save Google millions and millions of dollars.
The fediverse can mitigate this a little bit, as everyone can host their own videos on their own server, but that’s not enough, and extremely inconvenient.
and still expensive as hell. Hopefully one of your videos doesn’t go slightly viral, or you’ll get a pretty huge bill from your VPS. Unless you own the infrastructure, you’re paying a huge penny to host video.
Linus from LTT talked about it when it comes to FloatPlane. How stupidly expensive it is to host video.
I literally have like 1TB of video stored on YouTube and privatized. Google is making $0 from my videos, but they still have to store them and have them available if I want to watch it (it’s all of my Twitch VODs). Meanwhile websites like Streamable perma-delete my 5MB video after it gets 0 views in 2 milliseconds.
YouTube is a behemoth that will not be replaced.
Almost every place I call has a voice mail limit to prevent people from rambling on. Some places are 60 seconds, some are 120 seconds.
If OPs place is similar, they might only have an hour and a half of work.
That’s how much Samsung S22 Ultra sells for. Or I guess did, before the S23 Ultra came out.
Nah. My $2000 CAD unlocked directly from Samsung device had ads and bullshit pre-installed apps before I even inserted my SIM into it.
I returned that phone so fast. Never seen anything like that on my Pixel.
Depends how much money you pay in Canada whether you get visual voicemail or not.
$50/month? Nah
$80/month? Maybe…
Everyone thinks this, so no one does it.
It’s like the bystander effect.
Hilarious meme.
