Could we just get YouTube to stop working…everywhere?
No way, then I’d have to actually pay people to fix stuff.
Now if shorts stopped working, id be good with that.
You might be, but the vast majority of the population would not like it.
Sure one could argue that the content is addictive and they shouldn’t want to view that stuff, but that’s a separate issue.
eh, there have been some education shorts I’ve seen that got me to subscribe to their YouTube channel.
I just want to have the ability to control the algorithm on my account so my recommendations don’t get clogged with low quality, spammy, rage bait videos

There may be others if you look around.

Is me, Boris.
You can get the Internet out of Russia but not Russia out of the Internet.
This is something they have been working on for years.

I don’t want to lose access to bootleg movies on ok.ru
no clue what that is but will always be sailing the seven seas.
It is like Russian facebook but without any need to respond to or honor any US/EU copyright treaties while under sanctions
Hey now, be fair. Moldova has a big presence there too… proportionately.
Don’t forget their general lack of moderation. I’d use just about any site over OK.ru as I’ve seen some truly reprehensible videos on there.
Oh I have no idea about any of that I only search specific movies I want to see on regular search engines and add that to the search to find the video. They have a lot of really old movies that I like which are actually hard to find on other sites.
Get ready for the new hot site in Russia, HighWindow, showcasing “accidental” deaths as you’ve never seen them before!
people always joke about this but defenestration has never been that common in neither the Russian Empire, USSR nor Russian Federation
