What’s your take on his points? I wholeheartedly disagree with him but I don’t know how to properly voice why. I wanna hear what you guys have to say.

      Me personally seeing or not seeing ads doesn’t change the fact that good online news outlets are going out of business because the wholly-internet-ad-supported business model doesn’t support honest journalism, kids spend their time watching devices designed to get them addicted to the flashing colors instead of something designed to help them, etc etc and so on. Did you read my message?

      I see a pretty small number of ads also, but if you took away from that that my main complaint is that I personally see a lot of ads, I think you should read it again.

          I think there’s been a misunderstanding. I read the OP, it seemed to me like he asked a relevant question about the linked video, I did my best to answer his question from my POV because I like talking about this stuff and I’m self-centered enough to think that my POV on it might be something other people might like to read.

          To me, there are more valuable things in the world than tons of good videos. The systems that you “do not care” about, help to maintain the nice world that you live in, and whether you’re aware of it or not, failing to take good care of them will eventually impact your cushy existence. But, you’re free to believe me or not about that, and to value whatever you choose.

          You don’t need to tell me any more about your value decisions, though, because I don’t share them and I don’t plan to start. Good luck.
