surprise announcement

Who is surprised? I am not.

I hope this is true and not some misinterpretation of someone saying: It MAY release 26. Yes, 2026.

I am not from the US and I really can't believe, a convicted man that lied in his first term is president again.

Also I can't believe there are people still rooting for and defending him, while his behavior is obviously erratic to say the least and clearly not in favor of the people that voted for him.

And I can't believe people are still surprised he is lying. Again.

This is so me. I don't have ADHD, or at least I haven't let anyone check, but this still checks out for me.

Hast du einen Zeitstempel für mich? Ich will nicht 4 Stunden Video durchsuchen. Alternativ kannst du gern die wichtigsten Punkte hier zusammenfassen.

Und welche Möglichkeiten wären das, die noch nicht ausgeschöpft wurden?

I'm waiting for something like this since forever. I hope other states and countries will follow. This is huge.

It's not only steam, but also Amazon, Apple, you name it.

Buy means buy, not "rent until we decide to render your product useless"!

I'm still standing in my ass

You made some good points and I agree, that YouTube has to make money. It is a business after all. Still some decisions make it shittier than it was before for consumers and creators (imo at least):

I am not a content creator myself, but the current algorithms and model seem to make it hard for new creators to get any attention and monetize their content.

On the other hand, I feel the UX for consumers gets worse, especially since it is harder to find new, widely unknown content. But I don't know if it is better for subscribers, since I never subscribed.

Still I hope any competitor arises, may it be peer tube or some other platform. But you are probably right, without a big investment that is not going to happen soon.

I agree. YouTube is only running by the fact, that the content creators are only there. If there was another platform with comparable content and creators, i.e. a real competitor, YT would disintegrate immediately.
