YouTube also supports longer videos outside of shorts. And they don't even have to be in portrait mode. ^/j^

In case you're serious, a video-centric social media. It focuses on short vertical videos. Naturally, they're generally too short to have much useful information, so it's mostly dumb addictive content, or straight up misinformation. It's meant to feel like you're not wasting time while you definitely are. "I am not spending 15 minutes to watch a normal video, I just watched a few (maybe 50) short (around 1 minute) videos."

It's like YouTube shorts.

What happened to the previous post? If you felt like you had to remove it, why did you just post it again?

Anyway, yes I am. It's not like I could give a single reason why, it's a lot of things, so simply yes.

I hate Billboards.

I don't just hate them, but I'd straight up make them illegal. At least next to roads. They are specifically meant to get the attention of drivers. How can that be allowed?

Generally yes. If I don't need it, I don't need it for free either. The price doesn't change how much I don't need a product.

Only made sense when some supermarkets had samples of hams and cheeses in those sections before COVID. Helped decide which one to buy.

School, bus station, many other places of my city with free internet.
I also used to steal neighbor's WiFi for years. Since I was 8 until I was 14. But for larger downloads I used public networks. By larger downloads, I meant >50MB. Yeah. Huge. Though I was watching YouTube quite a bit, usually at 144p/240p. In the end I still spent quite a bit.

Currently I just use mobile data. Still no normal internet connection at home. But hey, my school finally has symmetric gigabit. The only problem is, most classrooms are connected via Fast Ethernet.

Fun fact: Most parents cannot hear/see this sentence.

Also something to consider is that each federated instance keeps their copy of that content. If the content is some hateful propaganda, those instances may also be held legally responsible for that. Same with piracy communities.

I've got 3 on my list.

  1. BT-PAN Access Point - Kinda ridiculous, but I'd like to have one. I've also found a few BT-PAN-enabled dial-up modems, but I'd have no way to connect those up. Some of those could even be connected to USB printers for wireless printing. Not particularly useful anymore, I just find those devices interesting.
  2. Dot matrix printer - This one isn't even as ridiculous. I really love that sound and how the text they print looks. Sadly, if I am looking for new ones, a basic 9-pin Epson dot matrix is around €200. But the ribbons are cheap as chips. In fact, often even cheaper. Just imagine casually handing out a document printed on dot matrix to someone nowdays.
  3. Nano pocket drone - Something like FQ777-124. Maybe a toy like that is a bit childish, but it still can be fun. In fact I already tried to order this one. From 4 different sellers, twice on AliExpress, twice on Amazon. I never got it :(

On top of the image is title reading "Humans when cat:". The image is a screenshot from game showing truck with text "psps" next to a logo on blue background. The logo and text font are similar to those of Pepsi (brand of carbonated soft drink).
