YouTube used to be the place for retards who couldn't keep attention long enough to read a book but today's retard it too stupid even for watching YouTube's 3 minute video, which is why [TikTok](tiktok.md) with its 1 second videos is gaining rapid popularity instead: [zoomer](zoomer.md) can't hold attention for longer than 9 seconds or wait for a new video longer than 3 seconds -- TikTok keeps up with this mental limitation of today's youth.
[LMAO](lmao.md), YouTube started to artificially throttle the [CPU](cpu.md) (thanks [JavaScript](js.md)) when viewed with another browser than [Google's](google.md) Chrome and/or when using adblock :D Torturing users, increasing CO2, creating [bullshit](bullshit.md), pure [capitalism](capitalism.md).
Just one of countless damages YouTube has done to society is establishing videos as standard medium of any form of communication and information storage -- back in the day Internet was mostly text-based, sometimes there was an image or video of course, but only when needed. Since YouTube's rise to fame a lot of information has just moved to videos, even that which suffer by this format, e.g. books, announcements, notes, presentations, tutorials, pure audio and so on. All of this [bloat](bloat.md) of course makes the information hard to index and search, store, process, view on weak devices, it wastes enormous amounts of bandwidth, computing power and so forth. Thanks YouTube.
{ https://www.vidlii.com seems alright though, at least as a curiosity. Anyway if you need to watch YouTube, do not use their website, it's shitty as hell and you will die of ad cancer, rather use something like invidious or youtube-dl. Here is an awesome hack I discovered to search only old videos on youtube! The new shit is just unwatchable, there's clickbait, sponsors, propaganda, SJW shit everywhere, thankfully you can just exclude any year from the search with with "-year" (at least for now), for example: https://yewtu.be/search?q=free+software+-2023+-2022+-2021+-2020+-2019+-2018+-2017+-2016+-2015+-2014+-2013+-2012+-2011+-2010+-2009&page=1&date=none&type=video&duration=none&sort=relevance. UPDATE: actually you can even just use `before:YEAR` in the search, TIL. Enjoy. UPDATE 2024: Invidious no longer works, they keep creating new frontends and hacks every day, currently the Freetube program is quite nice, I can't keep up with it though, I'll stop updating this shit, just search it yourself. ~drummyfish }
