PewDiePie: I'm DONE with Google
-
That's very cool indeed – although I dread the moment he starts talking to his followers about Lemmy.
Hahaha I didn't think of that, chaos would ensue. I would be here for it though

Wait till you find out you can use your brain

Any influencer that relies on YouTube ad money won't make the full jump.
Other than that, they'll very quickly find out that keeping a video focused service running and serving 10k views daily (300k/mon) is very expensive both in storage and bandwidth.
actually for big youtubers, ad revenue from google isn’t all that huge afaik. i’m going only on the LMG breakdown they did, but they only get 26% of their revenue from adsense… that’s no tiny share of course, but i wouldn’t call it completely catastrophic to loose

Because traffic data can't be obtained without some tracking...

Figure it out then
I don’t care if enough so I would, I just found this amusing

Three R’s to deGoogling: Reduce, replace, remove.
I would say start by changing your browser and search engine (lots of options out there today), and then set up your own domain for email hosting so you can try different providers.
There isn’t another YouTube with all that content out there, so that one is tough, but you don’t have to 100% de google, 50% is still good. 15% is still good.
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?

Er. 'I am done with Google'. Watch the video on YouTube...
“I’m done with capitalism” he writes on a phone paid for with
MONEY

People on Lemmy really just suck. So much snobby negativity
You should see reddit or any other mainstream social media for that matter, I assure you it gets much worse. In fact people on lemmy are mosltly normal.

Didn’t try to host a domain myself yet, but having it set up with Proton has given me zero problems thus far.

This is the first time I have seen someone reference the decade as the 10’s and I feel weird about it.
The 20’s last century seemed cooler.
It felt weirder to me a few years ago. But over time a just vaguely identifiable character for 2010 to 2019 has emerged when I think of that decade.

For Pewdiepie this makes a lot of sense, he was literally the top youtuber. But uploading also somewhere else (no exclusivity required) needs to become mainstream yesterday. We have technical colleges far from the US posting educational video content for a website embed on youtube only, it's madness
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).
-
Guy's an ass, but if this gets people on board with degoogling then good for him.
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

I think it's ironic that the alternatives to Android (graphene, calyx) only fully work on Google phones.
Doesnt calyxos also work on fairphone

That boy doing so much work for privacy and linux communities. I love it!
Can we stop with the narrative that corporations and celebrities are doing good? This guy is 110 Million people away from doing something for privacy and linux, once he makes 110 million and one person switch to linux or using a youtube alternative he will have done some work in the positive.

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
