That's going to be one long arc though
Let's hope so.
What's next, Open source electric car? Building and living in an Earth Ship?

i don't want to watch pewdiepie, can someone explain what's his beef here
Just downloaded it and skimmed by frames... Seems to be a list of reasons to degoogle. Mentions privacy, security, and how Google is extending fingers into everyone's privacy by browser, password manager, wallet, phone, etc.
Guy's an ass, but if this gets people on board with degoogling then good for him.
I’ve never watched him (I hated him when he would just scream at video games) but he seems to be a lot more mature these days. He even posted a video on why you should switch to Linux recently

Heartbreaking: one of the most deplorable people in the world made a good point.
I mean I don't really consider him a deplorable person... He was a dumb edgy teen 15 years ago that happened to strike a cord with the overwhelming amount of dumb edgy teens on youtube, and strike it rich. I haven't paid a ton of attention to him, but from what I saw of his linux and gadget crafting videos, it sounds like he's grown up a fair amount from his days of scream streaming.
He was an edgy teenager deep into his 20's.
Valid... but also have to point out he hit big as a celebrity. When you are literally raking in millions of dollars. He was about 21 when he started his channel. and bottom line is, he got views, he got likes, and it turned into real cash. Most of our jobs etc... encourage us to grow up. His job, rewarded him for catering to his base... which of were younger than him.

Just throwing this out there, you can open the video and expand the description and there is a button you can click on to view the transcript of the video and then you can just copy that out into a text editor or read it right there

Love this, although I think he will realise pretty quickly that hosting on his >!Steam deck!< might have some drawback haha (I'm thinking storage here)

Download the video before YouTube takes it down. I want to see that site flooded with reuploads if they do.
It will stay up. Do you know how many YouTube videos there are badmouthing Google? They don't care so long as you're watching them.
