I always wondered why they haven’t been doing it from the start, seams like it is not as simple as I imagine.

People will take it, there is no other option and G is working hard not to allow another video platform.

Problem is ads they are playing are awful and loud. We will make way to silent them and black them out, it is not hard.

Bigger problem is content they are pushing is getting bad and is pushing creators into burnout. And I don’t want to see videos companies are creating, but want individual contributions.

Mine too! I don’t understand why people don’t like it.

Not to mention it is believable. Yeah, maybe some things are too much but those are tools used to create emotion.

Not the lest that Brenna Odell was my childhood crush.

Same here, I don’t understand people buying phones without SD card and than complaining about it.

They sent a message to manufacturer that they don’t want SD cart slot and of course in the next year evel less phones will have it.

While title is click bite, they do say right at the beginning:

*Right now, it is pulling through only because of Microsoft’s $10 billion funding *

Pretty hard to miss, and than they go to explain their point, which might be wrong, but still stands. 700k i only one model, there are others and making new ones and running the company. It is easy over 1B a year without making profit. Still not significant since people will pour money into it even after those 10B.

You don’t really understand humans, do you? Or you don’t want to accept what being human is?

I understand it a bit differently. In sentence “I don’t feel like paying” can be hidden different things and most probably a combination of few.

Maybe “i am ashamed I can not afford it” or " not sure if friend can afford it rigth now" or just plain old 'if we really like it we might find money for it, but are not sure we like it enough and that amount of money is serious expense for both of us".

If they were not aware of it before buying then it is illegal.

I agree, I thank to all real exhibitionist sharing their normal intime moments with us. Professional porn, even more one pretending to be “amateur” is just awful.

But I think they will cut access without ads soon enough, and I do agree someone needs to pay for the service.

My problem is quality of the platform went down with higer quality of production. Those with better production are doing better than those with quality content. Additionally it started looking like TV network with dozen big shows, and not enough random content. Ex. they always recommend me videos with 1M+ views, even thou a I want only ones with less than 100k.

I have been dusting of my podcast players for some time. I like to have a video, but looks like price is too high for me. Audio will be good.

People in this thread look like they never mada a mistake doing something for the first time.

You are all perfect, but our admins are awful.

They also don’t have experience in running this federation thing like we don’t have in using it.

This is all in R&D mode, both for code and for running community.

Express your opinions, since that is the only way things can change, but have some understanding for people running the show.

Depends on what sites you are using, google sites are slower for me, others are faster.

Also looks like chrome is better at looking faster somehow, probably starts to render page sooner.

And of course: wgich extensions do you have in firefox and how old is your profile. Try it out with new, clean profile and than you will feel it.
