How’s this whining? YouTube sucks. There doesn’t need to be an alternative for people to leave. Just like Twitter. It’s operated by people that demonstrably don’t care about content creators and in fact- have provenly screwed them over time and again as evidenced in the countless tech articles about them shared here and elsewhere….
But by all means, don’t let me get in the way of a collective Stockholm syndrome
Stockholm syndrome isnt real my guy, some cops made it up to hand wave why captives called them out for risking their lives more than the kidnappers had.
Kinda like how youre hand waving people clearly telling you that a shit service still fulfills a service, and not having alternative examples to pivot to means people who need the service filled will use shit service over no service.
ROFL!
Read up… “my guy…”

You didnt read your own link, huh
"and in fact it is a "contested illness" due to doubts about the legitimacy of the condition"
Literally in the opening blurb
Contested…. “My dude”, doesn’t mean non existent. It just means someone disagrees with it.
As in-
Your dumb point is contested by me. Does that invalidate it? Do I automatically win now?
Still didnt read the article, where it has an entire section explaining that the contest is between psychologists saying its fake, and media outlets and cops saying its real.
Youre hammering my point home my guy, and hitting every finger you have on the way there
You’re pursuing the wrong point- my guy….
Made up or not, my point remains that people constantly bitch about YouTube, and then cry and complain when someone suggests they leave the platform.
Whether we name or after some contested psychological label, or just call them ignorant children, whining and hating on a thing only to defend it when someone suggest you stop using it if you hate it so much is incredibly stupid.
Not going to argue this any further.
