The last bullet point might be the most impactful. Google should know the rules by now.

I remember "gimpshop" being a thing at one point

Well it might be a different project entirely, but PhotoGIMP is still a thing.

I really do wonder why more people aren't using Delta Chat.

Anyway. I remember using Session for a few months a couple of years ago. Something about the interface was bugging me. It felt sluggish.

YouTube's pricing is a mess. Here's a quick breakdown of their offer here in France :

• YouTube Premium (so video + music): 12€/m

• YouTube Music Premium (music only, obviously): 10€/m

One would assume based on this that Google values YouTube at only 2€/m per user. But anyway, let's take a look at their family plans for a laugh:

• YouTube Premium (6 users): 18€/m

• YouTube Music Premium (6 users still): 15€/m

Let's put aside the price discrepancy. 18/6 = 3€/m per user. All signs point to Google being ok with making between 2 and 3€ per user per month, yet such an offer doesn't exist. Hell, make it 4€, even. People would flock to it. But no, they're just being greedy.

Sideload uYou+ or set up Yattee. If you don't know how to do any of those things, look into DNS based ad-filtering like ControlD and install Video Lite. Or skip the DNS part and only install Video Lite, but you'll see in-app ads unless you pay the $12/y subscription.

Obviously not.

If you're saying this because Snowden said wait he said on Twitter, I'm sorry but I wouldn't know. Not because I didn't try to read the article, I did, but because my custom DNS flagged cointelegraph.com as being malignant and blocked it. True story.

Edit: cointelegraph, not "cointelegram."

Because it isn't secure at all?

Heh.

They silently dropped that motto eons ago.
