    Not even the wackiest scenario he’s done.

    Bro legit took this one incredibly seriously and talked about the consequences of having to explain sudden freak accident deaths to pre-schoolers and how conspiracy theories would proliferate about Reagan being responsible because supposedly he had pushed for the launch to stay on schedule even when issues came up because the plan was for him to make s phone call to the crew of the ship from the SotU address that year.

    Basically Reagan would go down in pop culture canon as being the man who murdered big bird, and whatever consequences that sprung from that would be the biggest shift vs present timeline instead of the obvious fact that big bird would be canonically dead since all the normal viewers would have seen him go up in a fireball and die.

    I’m not logged in because I don’t want any suggestions! I’m using ReVanced of course.

          Same, but you were talking about NewPipe. I assume you use that on your phone.

          And while you can disable the search history there, too, it often is convenient not to have to type the name of that thing you want to listen to while you’re driving, so many people leave it enabled.

        Guilty.

        Having no actual presence on social media is considered “creepy” by modern social standards, instead of what I view it as: more secure.

          I find avoiding social media helps reduce encounters with the insane side of people who somehow appear to be relatively normal in real life.

          For instance, I actually like my inlaws in real life, despite having some very different views than they do. On Facebook however, they’re complete fucking idiots that I wouldn’t give the time of day because they would just argue with me about it.

            It’s odd how that proxy allows people to act feral. It’s like the behavior of a dog behind a fence.

            Though I’ll admit to trolling a little bit here and there, so maybe I’m not the best example.

            It’s funny, I’m the opposite. In real life, I openly advocate for seizing the means of production and guillotining the rich, but I don’t do that on Facebook because I don’t want to get banned.

          as far as i care, having social media makes you more likely to be insane, because of the aggressive amount of influence that these sites and applications hold over people.

            Forums are not social media. How is this hard to understand. Forums have existed for decades longer than social media and if you include forums in the definition of social media then you literally by definition include every comment section on every blog, news site, and even things like the FCC request for comments from citizens.

            It’s absolutely idiotic to include forums in that definition. You make the definition so wide as to be useless.

              People have gotten confused and declared that any internet based activity that involves interaction is social media. Social media is centered on users (you follow other people, not topics, and people for whatever crazy reason use their real name), whereas there is absolutely no real reason to do that on a forum.

                This is the exact reason I never became interested in Mastodon. Following people just isn’t my style. The only social media I use is YouTube (without an account) because apparently Lemmy isn’t social media.

            I meant no actual presence on mainstream social media where I’m not using a pseudonym, and exchange profiles with the general public that I meet.

    I don’t watch YouTube on mobile, this app is an ancient Vanced version that doesn’t even work, and newpipe hasn’t worked for me recently either. If there is a YT vid I absolutely have to watch on mobile I rawdog it in Firefox with ubp

      YT App patched with revanced still works for me, and the app uses less battery for me than the browser version. Privacy wise, the browser is presumably better, though.

      My home page looks the same either way, though.

      Newpipe has hat two major fixes to account for yt changing the way it served videos. Wasn’t working for a few weeks for me either but since 1-2 weeks ago it’s reliably working again. So, maybe try and update to the newest version now to check if it works again if you are interested in using it.

    My first recommendation is from that Townsend YouTube channel where the guy dresses up like it’s 1776 and cooks food from that time period with a funny authentic 1776 kitchen and cookware

    we love a good alternate history hub video.

    Although if that were my recommendations they would be let down because i turned them off. You can’t one up me, i am simply one step ahead of you.
