PewDiePie: I'm DONE with Google
-
Guy's an ass, but if this gets people on board with degoogling then good for him.
Calling this guy an ass shows that you have no idea who he is. You're probably the type of person who thinks they're well informed but exclusively get their info from echo chambers like Lemmy.
-
That's very cool indeed – although I dread the moment he starts talking to his followers about Lemmy.
That would literally be the best this to happen to this god forsaken platform. There isn't nearly enough users, diversity of content, or sheer volume to make this place a genuine alternative to Reddit. Getting an influx from a huge youtuber like him means this place might finally get active communities for mainstream hobbies like sports, music, and videogames.

People listen to mister nobodies on the internet like they are prophets...
He's one of the biggest and most loved youtube personalities. He has influence, and him saying this kind of stuff is a big deal. Pretending he's a nobody shows that you're simply ignorant.
-
The only people who have called this guy a nazi are terminally online far left jackoffs who get all their information from other jackoffs in the same echo chambers.

[email protected] + [email protected] + [email protected] + [email protected]
i had 4 in a row
Oh no, 4 different posts that were posted on 4 different communities on 4 different instancess, all of which are about the topic he's talking about in the video... The horror
-
Did he back away from right wing stupidity?
Since when was he about that right wing shit ?
-
A lot of the better creators are on Nebula. I don’t think they’d take Pewds though.
Nebula is like netflix, not youtube

Your own domain for email hosting is a massive pain in the ass. Have you not run into a million problems with other hosting providers refusing you for possibly spam?
Self hosting an email server is a pain in the ass and I don't really recommend it.
Buying your own domain and using it in whatever email provider you want is very easy and gives you ownership over the email address. You may switch providers freely without needing anyone else to do anything.

There's no redemption arc because he literally never did anything wrong. His content was always family friendly
Didn't realize the N word was family friendly lol
-
How are you going to do that advertising using one of their products? He has 100M followers and he's a multi millionare, he should close his youtube account and move in another platform
Good point. People should only advocate for dgoogling on platforms full of people who have already degoogled. It's stupid to try and reach people still using Youtube.
-
Move to Lineage OS or Calyx OS
Don't be fooled by the Graphene OS Mafia
What do the other two do better?
-
Er. 'I am done with Google'. Watch the video on YouTube...
wrote last edited by [email protected]I like how Lemmy somehow still finds negativity here. Never change lmao.
An internet celebrity in the millions of followers is going FOSS. Cheer up. On the downstream, this may bring Lemmy more users and put more visibility on open software.

In Japan they have an IR beacon system to track traffic congestion which works anonymously and lets offline car navigation systems have good-quality traffic info.
Great info so that's why non popular japaneese car app is working great for him

Fair enough, but I was saying in the "this should become common practice" sense. I don't think anyone can just post there since it's owned by the creators, so you have to join them, it's a package deal.
-
This post did not contain any content.
No, stop, come back...
-
My own domain?!? Any suggestions??
Furrysmurfporn.ai is available
-
No, not I don’t self host my email which is where a lot of the trouble comes from
I don’t remember having any issues with it ever. That was a concern so I did slowly transition to the custom domain
I stopped doing it because I kept getting rejections from Microsoft from my property manager and some other important stuff. Drove me nuts.

I wasn’t self hosting. I was just talking about your own domain, which caused me serious problems when flagged for spam.
Edit: I’m guessing it’s easier nowadays but I still carry that pain lol

My wife was a PewDiePie fan from before the slur incident so I've loosely seen some of his content over the years. He's apologized multiple times, and he's shifted his style significantly multiple times since then.
Basically in the last few years he's grown up a ton. He married his girlfriend of a decade or more after earlier refusing marriage, had a baby, emigrated to Japan and now posts tons of creative and day-in-the-life style vlogs
Didn't he stream a dead body in a Japanese suicide forest shortly after moving to Japan?

Where would be a general purpose place to use as the second platform? Something that's easy to use (and ofc not even more immoral than youtube, so not rumble or things like that).
Peertube would be my choice, thanks to p2p one won't burden an instance if a video gets too popular. Just found a nice interface to find a good instance as a videomaker depending on topic, requirements, etc: https://joinpeertube.org/instances?profile=video-maker
As with the rest of the fediverse, autonomous institutions like universities should ideally have their own instance or join a collective. Embeds get the same p2p benefits and they seem super easy to implement
