The business model for YouTube as a creator is literally how can I be the most bellended version of myself.
Very weird. I mean I’m totally capable of some bellendry but the YouTube path doesn’t float my boat.

My 9yr old Nephew wants to be a "You-Tuber"🤦🏻♂️.
I had to look that word up. Good analysis.
This leads to the thought that all entertainment, whether streamed, played, broadcasted, as passively observed, is pornography.

YouTube was great years ago, before it had adverts. It was like Nostr about 18-19 years ago. I had some cool friends on there. Now, it's an awful place, and 75% of the comments are bots
