I’ve definitely turned into the paranoid nutcase within my friend group in recent years, I hate that everything is “smart” nowadays requiring an app/internet connection & account, just to do basic things that didn’t require any of that before.

What’s some things currently making you ramble like an old man?

    The 1-2 ads in front of a YouTube video or in the middle, I just don’t watch that video anymore.

    If I’m watching youtube on someone else’s TV, I will hook up my premium account and let them pollute my search history before I put up with a single ad. It’s one thing for a creator to do a sponsor bit–I can skip past it, and leave a nasty comment if it’s something like established titles, but I’ll die before I watch another damn wendy’s ad. I worry that a pharmaceutical ad would radicalize me to CIA watch list levels if I were forced to watch one at this point
