I appreciate what you are trying to share, so this is just me venting.

I hate you tube!

Having to sign in is annoying. Having the absolute LIE that it has anything to do with protecting the community is infuriating.

I try and never use youtube, then I am reminded why. Yes I know how to use the plethora of alternative front ends, but I simply dont want to play the game.

    Technically, Piped is not just a frontend... How about setting up a redirect? I used to provide links to piped.video like the annoying bot but then I realized it's decentralized and everyone using Piped probably has a redirect (or link-handling app) set up to their preferred instance.

    BTW, there's an Internet Archive mirror of the video available as a plain file or in their online player The reference is at 9:57 but the whole thing is worth it.

    The Technical Difficulties team still does stuff together but I think the contestants realized the articles from later, better seasons all come from the Unusual Articles list, spoiling the surprise and ending Citation Needed. Also, Matt has since come out as transgender and accepts any pronouns but doesn't want to talk more about it: no wonder since (s)he's British.
