the NZ shooting too was a major seismic shift in that. It's when they went from some "nudging" control to full control, and laid the groundwork for the COVID scare.

pawlickerI usually don't effortpost on here but I might as well post why I quit taking YouTube as seriously. YouTube is not only rigged for the top dogs and ecelebs, to the point where it's nearly impossible to get noticed anymore unless you somehow fluke into getting one video from 5-10 years ago boosted by "the algorithm", but they also manipulate search results.
Try to find Alex Jones memes (that were clearly mocking his show or using his rants as sample material) and you'll see "approved" media sources giving you their opinion about how because he called something wrong he must be sued into oblivion and his life ruined until he is killing himself and his kids are brainwashed. Which is a shame because comedy gold like vid related got buried by the humorless Google employees who want you to live in a world where the only user generated content are fake as shit restoration videos from Vietnam, clickbait, and unfunny "wow zoom face" douchetubers with soyface thumbnails, or worse TikTok in general. Or where the only approved emotion is Twitter ragebait until you're popping pills to stay happy.
The problem is, you simply cannot expect to even get noticed on YouTube anymore as long as you're not making whatever Susan Wojack and advertisers want you to make. Search results and your related section are rigged to shit, and I mean if you saw the Twitter file stuff (which was badly released btw), you likely know this is 100% on YouTube as well. Actually no, they say the quiet part out loud all the time.
Old YouTube is dead, the funny videos are dead, and it's all now just a place for finding music and long ass "video essays" that sound like Patrick Bateman himself wrote them.
Before flash went away in Android and Adobe decided to kill it instead of making it FOSS or some shit because Adobe is a shit company too, memes like this weren't uncommon to mock iToddlers.
@alex I still use instance but I like to call it instance software or instance server now when referring to the software itself. I think it also was a gnu social term as well.
This guy's been basically reporting on Twitter.com internal communications that Musk is releasing and as it turns out everything the schizo racist bodybuilders said was right. The glowies and Twitter staff were in bed with each other essentially, from the Biden Laptop saga to the election.
That's why a condition of having this published was it had to be on Twitter.com first and when you consider how many people were using that for news (and how many people probably sliced their dick off because of trends), it's genius.
also I think most of this comes from using a shit tier 5 dollar a month VPS with like 2 cpu cores and 3 gigs of ram, a thrift store/ewaste pc is much better specced this is not a joke
on the other hand, I have a Dell R620 I just picked up today. I'm going to try to set that up to be a fedi instance server and reverse proxy it to my home internet, it's beefy for the price I paid for it.
