I partially disagree. It depends on *why* they sent the link.
If it’s totally out of nowhere, I agree; if someone asks a question and their channel/video answer the question? Feel free to advertise yourself.
Whew, boy, that escalated quickly 🤣
What does that mean? Their post is still showing here? Kind of completely new to this platform. It’s so intriguing and alive. I don’t think I’m going to miss reddit one bit.
They’ve been banned from interacting in the future, which is a separate thing from their posts & comments being deleted. They’re banned from their own instance, too:
Ohhh! I see. Much obligated. Thx for letting me know.
What app is that
A web browser.
My favorite app.
Lmao

There’s some bot that links to piped, but i’d prefer people stop using youtube as a source for information / shilling their channel
piped often doesnt work for me… not sure why
It takes forever to load. Did you let your tea go cold before giving up?
Wait it takes forever for you? Like the piped app? Mine has been instant for the last 2 years. Like straight up faster than the Youtube offical app
Maybe I’ll try again, could have been a bad day, but my experience was bad enough I could not justify considering it as a viable alternative.
I thought it was unresponsive until I put my phone down to make some tea, came back and it just then started to play.
I mean with how many upvotes your comment has, I think it means something is different between my experiences and other people’s. I’m just not sure what the cause of the difference is.
Yeah I just tried another one, it took 21 seconds to begin playing the video from when I pressed the play button.
Because Privacy isn’t 1 or 0 situation. It is granular thing you may think using YouTube crosses the line but others might not agree.
We as a community can choose what crosses the line for this community.
Personally I am fine with YouTube links, there is usually a bot posting a more private link down below if you want. It makes it easy to pick one of the other it isn’t that big of a deal.

Yes! That’s why I did a YouTube series about this very issue on my channel, go here and smash that subscribe link and find me on patreon too!
Videos can* provide better privacy explanations (ex: animating asymmetric key exchange) The videos that get posted on here, well…
How about banning video essays?
Agreed - I just had to block the user that’s been loading up the place with his YT links but that cleaned up my feed quite nicely. Suggest a ban for that one too (didn’t want to name anyone but should be painfully obvious by looking at recent activity).
