I don't want to kink shame, but I don't really feel like sharing my location with their 188 partners.

You can opt out of all data sharing (RGPD)

I just use NewPipe: all YT links are redirected to it

I've not clicked the link (without any description or comment, I see no reason to follow a link to YT). That being said, I would agree with your comment if the video was also shared elsewhere than on YT since non-YT alternatives already exist. I insist: also shared elsewhere, not published elsewhere as I'm all for reaching people where they are, not where I would want them to be. But I'm also all for not bowing to simplicity, conformity and, but isn't that linked, to laziness ;)

Its published on Nebula

The video poster could have easily avoided this discourse by adding the word almost to the title.

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

yes so what. the title is "1 month without..."

he could have gone a month without using youtube and then posted a video on youtube and he still wouldnt be contradicting himself

[โ€“] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago

I mean this is addressed in the video. But yeah, I see the irony. It also posted on Nebula though!
