    Its literally the lowest form of entertainment and its not worth a single moment of ad watching.

    I’m just curious, but what type of content would you be watching on YouTube?

    I think the platform has come a long ways when it comes to content. Sure, if you’re just watching gaming content I’d say you’d be disappointed. It’s been like that for a decade now at least. There’s a lot of decent content on there though with a lot of it even being somewhat educational.

        I see. I simply ask because the platform has changed a lot if you used it a little over a decade ago and I know some people who never got over the transition.

        Absolutely understandable that you don’t want to spend time looking for anything that might catch your interest though.

        Yeah YouTube’s real problem is the recommendations are terrible. It tries to ram the most profitable, lowest common denominator swill down your throat until it gives up and just recommends stuff you’ve already watched.

      I literally use it almost exclusively for how-to styles of videos. I had to replace the throttle cable on my riding lawnmower last year. I found an awesome step-by-step video. Stuff like that…
