It seems that everything turned into scams, aggressive self marketing and just click bait irrelevant content. I liked finance videos, but every creator sounds like “the world will end soon” or “my secret method to make 1 million per week day trading stocks/forex/crypto.”

Content aimed at culture (movies/series) also behave the same way, throwing a bit of politics into the mix. Always the same incendiary click bait title spewing a bunch of nonsense that has nothing the story, setting characters or other topics relevant to the piece.

Is there anything that can be saved on that platform? It has gotten so bad that I’m start to think that Tiktok and Twitter both have better content than YouTube. At least in those platforms you can find a random dude writing an essay in a series of 20 tweets on why an increase of mantis is related to the global surge of ballpoint pen prices.

      Spoken like an average cancel culture enjoyer; especially since this post hasn’t had any activity in like, what, a week? Digging up an old comment to do something like this is something people enjoy for some reason, and I don’t get it. Look for the positives, not the negatives, for God’s sake. There’s too much negativity in this world (which probably won’t change, but I can hope).

          Crying? You’re the one getting worked up about it. I just like to spread positivity, and it’s clear that you don’t. Not my problem.

              Okay, sorry if I misunderstood your tone, but I didn’t get insecure lol. I was just trying to defend the good sides of LTT, despite the drama. Nothing wrong with looking for the positives in a negative situation. And, I still feel that my assumption that you support cancel culture was justified, but disagree with me as you will. Anyways, just a suggestion, but try looking for the positives hidden in the negatives, because I can almost assure you that Linus and his team are trying their best to make things right within the community, and the company. Take that as you will.
