Welcome to c/effort, the home of effort posts! This is a space where you can write on an topic, as long as it reflects real time and effort to put together.

Rules

Posts are text-only. No images or videos.

2.While the topic can be on anything, posts still require “effort”. While there isn’t a minimum word limit or anything, generally this means it’s longer than most other posts and there’s also that the expectation that your posts required real effort to write up.

“Master” posts that have a lot of links are welcomed.

You will never see a more disgusting place than YouTube. An algorithm that pushes the most disgusting content like gore and trauma and the comment section of even the most benign video will have some chud shitting on feminists or whatever with a million updoots. Absolute shithole of a content farm website.

[Sexism] I was just watching a wholesome video of a rooster protecting the flock from a hawk, and the highest comment was like "Hurr duurrr I bet this triggers feminists seeing hens run in fear while the rooster takes charge."

Bruh, no, what is triggering is how illiterate misogynists are about the animal world. Imagine choosing hens as your proof that women are weak. Hens, the gender of chickens that also attack predators regularly. Hens, the gender of chickens that are where scientists came up with the term 'Alpha'. Hens, the gender of chickens that can literally change their gender.

link because I'm not a lib, this person deserves bullying tbh but I doubt it's worth wasting time on

And then, to top it all off, in the recommendeds was a thumbnail of a real picture of a squirrel gored up after being shot with a pellet gun, with the title "Watch this before YouTube deletes it" smuglord

So yeah, youtube is fucked up trash.

I used to get incredibly loud and grating Falun Gong adverts going on about how Gommunist China had killed 500 billion people or whatever halfway through videos of rain noises or whatever I'd put on when I slept, it was incredibly unpleasant. Big ups c/libre for giving me instructions on how to download Newpipe lmao

Accidentally seeing or hearing YT ads is like being slapped

Yeah, I need to figure it out. I used Vanced until it went down and tried to install Revanced but struggled with the installation process (didn't help I looked for instructions on reddit and got dogpiled by rude nerds because I'm not very tech savvy lmao)
