I found some of the best learning videos on youtube. Things that I couldn't learn in university. That's why I don't use the word education, because academic teaching is filled with learning useless things. Here like some places of the Internet only the things that I need come right under my fingers.
I use youtube because its where all the videos are, not because it is good. They delete peoples accounts and videos for no reason, and removed features like rating videos by stars. google has ruined this site with ads and censorship. People need to move to other platforms away from youtube and someone should create a search engine that specializes searches for videos thats not google, and finds videos so uploaders who don't use youtube can be found.
How do you say they do it with no reason?
for no reason I mean. There is no edit reply button.
It's kind of realtiy..
Deviated: Here is an example of someone trying to revert YouTube demonetizing and soft-censoring one of their videos that criticized of one of Australia's new laws: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v70e1WWwOj4
I totally agree. Couldn’t have summarized it better.
Youtube in my option is the best social media platform for personal growth. I like studying on YT quite a bit. However, they have made almost impossible to use it without having a premium subscription. Ads are getting longer and longer.
The recommendation algorithm is strong, helping users discover relevant content, while creators benefit from monetization options and a massive global audience.
Cons: Ads can be intrusive without a premium subscription, and competition for creators is very high.
Verdict: An essential platform for video content, whether you’re watching, learning, or building an audience.
Youtube is where I lose 2 hours every day, this video app is too much addictive for me I guess, be ware!
the only reason to accept youtube is because the wide community, because it's preinstalled on every fucking phone and it's made by GOOGLES.
instead that's probably the shittiest way to share videos cuz you'd have to use stuff like NewPipe and pray your IP doesn't get blocked and if so you'd have to use Invidious and pray it's not in 144p or stuff. USE PEERTUBE!!! UGH!!!
Recently got much worse, and is unusable without extensions / ReVanced. Although it's still a great platform, it's a shame that enshittification hit it hard.
