If we want online discourse to improve, we need to move beyond the big platforms.

We need to move away from money incentives!
Before anyone says “oh but they need to make money…” open source has worked great for most things. All money has done is ruin everything it touches!
YouTube is full of idiots promoting their opinions or often not even opinions, just regurgitating someones else youtube video so now all we have is “omg man, like and subscribe…” 20 times an hours with about 5 minutes of anything slightly useful, if not just a full paid promotion. Not to mention most videos would be much better as a blog or actually useful wiki you can follow without trying to find something useful in a video!
If you removed all the junk from YouTube, you could probably just run off a an 8 bay NAS! 😎
I have no idea how bad any of the other social media platforms are these days since I have no friends and youtube is the one that really ****s me off these days! 🤬
