I didn’t know that Google built encryption on top of the standard, I thought it was part of it.
Besides that though, Google would be making the dumbest business move if they didn’t let Apple’s potential RCS implementation talk to theirs.
Besides that, the point that RCS is still an open standard stands and should replace SMS just because of how archaic and old it is. Heck, there’s still a character limit.
RCS is an open standard created by GSMA. That’s why you’re wrong.
RCS is an open standard created by GSMA, not a Google product. Google and Samsung just have the most popular “flavours” of RCS
They are but disposables are quite popular as well and are getting more popular (higher margins I guess).
I updated as soon as I could. I’ve loved it since day one and now with Copilot it’s even better. I love it.
Yeah, I recently did it for a lab and it was… interesting.
My Ubuntu VM wasn’t particularly great either but it was the one that my uni provided
You opened up Pandora’s box. There’s no closing it.
My brain can think logically (like mathematical logic) but I have minimal practice. I’m not an amazing coder but I can get by.
The issue is content. Sites like daily motion didn’t have the content to bring in the user base. No users means less incentive to make content means less incentive to make content for it, means less users and so on… that’s the real reason no one’s got competition

Bruhhhh ain’t no way. She was literally not alive for it.

Another sane take. Seriously, a breath of fresh air after seeing people on both Reddit and Lemmy talking about this with the entitlement of the average r/ChoosingBeggars post
To be fair, this is the most sane take I’ve seen about this from the pro adblock side. That’s actually fucked up if they killed it out of nowhere but also sounds like Google.
Yeah, but where’s the user base and content? That’s why YouTube is successful.
As much as I love to shit on Elon Musk and twitter X, the fact that he’s paying users that generate traffic to his website means that he realizes the importance of user generated content. That’s one good thing I commend him for.
The problem is that running a video streaming platform is too expensive for there to be competition and YouTube is the only platform with the user base to be able to do it while being profitable. If you want no ads because ads are annoying but you also don’t want to pay for premium, you’re advocating for piracy (which I’m not against either), but if you expect them to keep the servers running even after that, you’re not living in reality
Just to add one more thing, if your criticism of premium is that they still collect your data after that, fair enough (get newpipe), but if you simply want to use YouTube for free and aren’t that bothered about your privacy (like when you use adblock on a browser) then that’s not consistent with that argument either.
That’s a fair criticism. I personally don’t care about it because I gave up on the idea of having any privacy ages ago but I get that people may not be happy with that.
If I were to play devil’s advocate, I can say that the data they collect is important for serving you the right videos but let’s be real here, Google definitely uses it to serve you ads everywhere else
This may be a hot take but I think it’s quite important for YouTube to be profitable because of how difficult running a video platform is already causing there to be no competition. Yeah, I would 100% prefer YouTube without ads (I pay for Premium) and I would love for there to be competition but considering the state of video streaming and how expensive it gets, I’m all for YouTube getting money.
Saw this and immediately purchased ad free boost. Not because I care about my privacy (I made peace with the fact that that’s long gone) but because I wanna support the dev.
