I don’t expect my data to be fully deleted in a centralized system either. even if it was deleted from the central server someone might have made an archive of it

and reddit is definitely guilty of this since they were bringing back peoples deleted comments and accounts

I feel like the problem with moving away from youtube is that the larger chanels making money off of it arent going to want to move because they wont get monitized if they do. If they do move it will probably be to another corperate platform.

I really dont like what youtube is planning on doing by restricting adblockers and adding more unskippable ads though. Hopefully that moves at least some people to peertube.

please can youtube be next?

I really want to stop using my google account and that’s the only thing keeping me from moving away from it.
