Comment on Inching closer to the grave every day

  I’m an old coot, I know some names like something paul, mr beast or pewdiepie, from when I was on reddit years ago, I know those guys are “youtuber” because I saw the thumbnail, but I have no clue what they do or what they speak of or why they would be famous?!? I don’t watch youtube, first because comments are toxics, it takes too much time, who spent hours listening/watching some rants by some guy in his basement?!? I’m like an out of touch skinner :)

    Youtubers are different than movie, music, and tv stars.

    I’m old school too though, i could be wrong at this point.

    From what i can tell, YT comments have actually improved over the years. Still plenty of garbage, but it’s bearable and there is some real discussion sometimes now.

      Bot spam is now backed by LLM technology

  Makes sense from that POV, I guess. Although I’d probably rather talk about hobbies and stuff instead

    You can do all of the above.
