in reply to InternetCitizen2 • • •Aren't you a victim, huh. These ingrates can't even be bothered to watch this 20-minute long video to write a summary themselves to determine if they want to watch the video! /s
For real, if this video is so important and so worth sharing, you could have written a short paragraph about it, instead of arguing with people.

in reply to InternetCitizen2 • • •It is not tribalism to expect you to behave differently than someone who gets paid per click.
You are not the aggrieved party in this case, everyone who has to deal with your bullshit is.
parks car sideways across six parking spaces
“Oh, look at all this tribalism! Can’t these people tell I’m their ally?”
Just act normal and when people tell you you’re fucking up, take steps to correct it.

in reply to InternetCitizen2 • • •Okay so when everyone tells you to behave differently and you think it’s excessive what’s the reasonable thing to do?
A normal person would decide to leave. Oh so im not allowed to park my lifted super duty across six spaces? Fine, guess I’ll take the beats pill to the Walmart parking lot one county over. Your loss, this country rap crossover playlist was about to get epic!
A person who has some kind of perverse negative attention thing would stay. After all, there’s no rules posted in the park that say a grown man can’t sit on the bench wearing nothing but a diaper fastened with a comically large safety pin and bonnet licking an oversized rainbow swirl lollipop. You have every right to be there!
Even if you take umbrage at having your abdl behavior posted about on the internet, you’ve spent more time and written more words defending your choice to post like a fucking adbot.
If you valued your own time you would just be normal instead of doing what you’re doing!

in reply to doodoo_wizard • • •Writing a summary takes work; which you are asking me to do to convince you to watch. I am sharing something I think is worth sharing; particularly as it may be used for people you know who are new to privacy. The title is edited to remove the cliff hanger and the description states exactly what the video will be about. If you don't find that adequate for your time that is your problem. I don't find it adequate to use more of my time to convince you further.
Please tell me what about the description or title are misleading. They have all the keywords you need to find an article if you really care about the material being written.

in reply to InternetCitizen2 • • •If you cared about getting people to watch the video you posted you would have rewritten the post when asked.
If you cared about your time you wouldn’t be replying.

in reply to InternetCitizen2 • • •I’m not trying to get your time. A careful reading of my reply would make it clear I’m trying to help you to accomplish your goals more efficiently.
That’s respecting your time.

in reply to doodoo_wizard • • •People's remarks have a theme that they want to know what the video will be about. I feel the title and description fit the criteria. I also feel it is excessive to ask for a summary. That takes far longer to write.
So what information is really missing here. The offending VPN is in the title. Anyone that wants to know more can use the keyword for an article of their choosing. The description is to the point that the video covers how FB wiretapped people with said VPN.

in reply to InternetCitizen2 • • •Okay so, again, the overwhelming majority are telling you that you are outside the norms and need to change your behavior. You’re open to the possibility that your feelings are pointing you in the wrong direction here and everyone is telling you that’s what has happened.
In this situation what more is needed for you to change?

in reply to InternetCitizen2 • • •So fair enough about the client not displaying the text. Although I realize it does if I click on the cross post. Regardless if both of those things say the same thing then its a dogshit description
Also the whole "in every possible language" thing is pedantic and stupid and I think we both know that.
InternetCitizen2
in reply to Vendetta9076 • • •That is your opinion. In mine it is concise and to the point. You're not entitled to my time to make metadata on topics to your liking.
It is, but a part of your grievance was that you didn't get the language. The German bit is added by the lemmy front end.

in reply to SirSamuel • • •The other reply is a good answer, but also dropping a video with no context or explanation is a hallmark of content spammers and growth hackers.
Even if looking like a crappy kind of poster isn’t enough to dissuade someone from just dropping a link and fucking off, providing some context and input to how and what the link will do and what it means as a post in the particular community is a lot better behavior and starts a conversation as opposed to doing nothing.

in reply to doodoo_wizard • • •If its not to your liking that is unfortunate. You can also make a comment to elaborate and contribute to the community and discussion.

in reply to InternetCitizen2 • • •Honestly, writing a summary of a video uploaded to YouTube is a very valid thing to do for any YouTube video (I am not alone with not opening links that goes to Big Tech's services). Just copy and paste the video's description, use DeepL or Offline Translator to translate it if it is not in English. Super easy to do. And if the video does not have any description, just write what the video is all about (but explains more than the title does). Doesn't have to be a long summary.
And for the Piped instances. Yes, unfortunately a lot of them are not working. That is why I installed it on my own server last year or so. But I would rather see a link to a Piped instance than a link to YouTube. That way I have a choice to switch instance. But with a link that leads to youtube.com, I need to copy the URL (if I can) or open the link and spam Esc or the X icon in hope that Google will not log anything about me. Just use piped.video (the official instance) and people will be happy. Much more privacy-friendly, too.

in reply to InternetCitizen2 • • •What description? :) You wrote the title of the video. That itself explans the topic of the video, but nothing more. We who don't opens the link wants to know in short what the video is truly about.
Anyway. I say good buy now :) Take care.

in reply to airikr • • •are there any working instances nowadays? Invidious is better on that front.
weird because invidious is harder to maintain

in reply to WhyJiffie • • •WhyJiffie
in reply to airikr • • •oh, I see. no problem. but it's easy to maintain a public instance if it is not publicly listed, and few know about it. with less traffic you are less noticeable.
but good to know the software still works
