Ads “destroyed” TV. Streaming only became popular because it meant no fucking ads. Now ads are destroying streaming. Circle of capitalist life, I suppose.

After Adam Conover said, “…mastodon is the linux of social media, no one will use it…”, I stopped listening to his opinion.
I mean I use Mastodon and Linux and even I know he was 100% right about that.

He is on Mastodon @adamconover@mastodon.social though.
And I do agree with the first part of the statement…but I think a good chunk of us here use Linux so the latter part falls flat.
Perhaps we’ll see it similar moreso to Unix. Where activity pub is Unix and is used around the world. But Linux is still used by a small portion of the population.
He is on Mastodon @adamconover@mastodon.social though.
He’s also apparently someone who streams video on YouTube!
Eh. Adam Conover is James Corden Zero. 🤮
Streaming is the best thing that happened to TV.
The fragmentation and exclusivity bullshit sucks, but streaming, on demand, in any length of time I want to spend in a sitting, without ads? I barely watched TV before streaming, because it wasn’t worth the downsides.
I see grimace, i don’t click.
When I moved out my first decision was to not get cable anymore. Streaming wasn’t even a factor in that decision as Netflix was only just starting here. I just didn’t care about all the drivel broken up by increasingly long commercial blocks. Lack of quality killed TV for me, not streaming.
The only thing I got from this is that bro loves ads more than anything in the world.
Yar Har Fiddle Dee Dee! Being a Pirate is alright with me! Do what you want cuz a Pirate is Free! You are a Pirate!
We would be far better off without TV. Sadly, TV is still alive and busy brainwashing millions as we speak.
I think there’s way too many salty nerds here that either didn’t see the video or didn’t even get the point Adam was making.

Eurovision is on public broadcasters for a reason.
