Meanwhile, I'm having a hard time exceeding 3 Gibibytes of RAM, while that fat fuck uses WinDOS 11, and even flat out states that it requires 4 Gigabytes of RAM at the very minimum. Then don't use WinDOS then, it's all by design to force you into buying new computers quicker all the time.
@ryo I hate those channels so much I won't even try to express it. But I do save their soyfaces to make fun of them on imageboards and to eventually make some giant cringe compilation. Why does everyone on Invidious have such shit taste in everything?
@TerminalAutism Note that the only Invidious instance with a different "popular" section is youtube.076.ne.jp, and it's the only instance with user registrations disabled. Comes to show who's on literally every instance with the exception of 1 instance.
@ryo Well, those channels and by consoomers (and shills) and for consoomers. They are all about getting people to waste a bunch of money on crap that they don't need and don't understand. Computer is slow? It must be old. It can't be the software, not that. And into the trash it goes. Or to a recycling center or a thrift store, where a reasonably intelligent person may get yet another computer basically for free, that is 90% as "good" as the new one that the idiot just paid another fortune for.
@TerminalAutism Jokes on you, but I've had clients that are software development studios, they had a WinDOS 10 PC that's slow as fuck, and they told me "it's because that thing is 3 years old already, so it's too old". Meanwhile, I show them my 15 year old laptop and how buttery smooth it is while running Artix, and that alone gets them confused.
@TerminalAutism Only among gaymers. This is the advantage of normies all dumping their PCs for smartphones, because at least they can't mock us over choice of computers anymore.
@ryo True, that is an exception, but that's because it's a small instance used by Japanese people. Get westerners to use it and almost all of them will be people that watch those channels. Horrible taste. Nothing but tech channels, and for the most part very bad ones. Not expecting some of the more niche stuff that I watch, or even relatively big channels about more niche aspects of tech, but come on, at least get LGR in there, that's a big channel, but actually cool, which is kinda rare. Most channels in the millions of subs are garbage, the good ones at best get stuck in the hundreds of thousands, if they're lucky. The retard market is the only really big market.
@TerminalAutism It's not only used by Japanese people (the only reason I know is because of people linking to it on forums, soycial media, blogs, and so on). Invidious has user accounts, and the "popular" tab is basically everyone the users are subscribed to. Since that one has only 1 account, and that person is a monolingual Japanese frog, the "popular" tab is going to show only Japanese content.
@TerminalAutism Also, the reason why popular JewTube channels are all garbage is because JewTube is not a platform for video sharing, it's a platform for earning ad revenue and shilling stuff from sponsors, being able to share videos is just an extra these days. And mr. Susan ONLY promotes videos that aim at earning as much ad revenue as possible, simply because Susan earns a share too, as a result that all the niche channels are hidden away from public view, and barely any new channels have any chance to even get anywhere.
@ryo That makes sense. I thought it was based on what all users watched on it. What doesn't make sense is why it even has accounts. Presumably just for subscriptions, but you can just use RSS, or put them in an html home page.
@ryo Some channels that I like did manage to get to the thousands. My Odysee channel is a lot bigger than my YouTube channel, though I got I think almost 70 subs on YouTube without posting any videos (just from comments), before I got shadowbanned. YouTube is horrible for actually posting videos. You have to dox yourself to remove the time limit. I think you can't upload anything longer than like, 15 minutes (if I'm remembering that correctly), unless you send them pictures of your credit card and ID, and give them a phone number. If I could use YouTube, I probably could get to the thousands without even trying, but I'll never comply with their ridiculous demands, so that's not gonna happen. Really doesn't make much of a difference to me, though.
@TerminalAutism Back in 2006, having thousands of subscribers was like being the world's superstar. Nowadays though, "WHAAAAAAATT?? Only a few thousand subscribers!? You're such a nobody!!".
@ryo Nobodies are very cool. Even in the 2010s, I watched some people that had 0 ~ 10 views per video and like, 12 subscribers. Most of those are gone now, though. A lot of people nuked their channels at one point or another, which is a shame, because I would like to watch them more. I really like rewatching old videos. They just have a different feel to them that you don't see anymore. Made by people that only did it for fun and didn't give a shit about anything, and didn't have to worry about what words they fucking say. And it helps that the times weren't nearly as horrible as they are now, even after the economy imploded. https://yewtu.be/watch?v=3keFpK4_LNQ https://yewtu.be/watch?v=wDrroFX3Rc0
