On the Internet, nobody knows you’re a human.
Personally, a healthy habit not to rely on lazy patterns, and it possibly helps people that may be browsing from a place where wikipedia is censored.
But a much less stupid explanation can be found here: https://github.com/whereismybugfix/wikiless#why-i-should-use-wikiless-instead-of-wikipedia
I’m on LibRedirect so I didn’t give it much of a thought.
Apparently ( https://github.com/Metastem/wikiless ) the domain is supposed to be https://wikiless.chaosmos.io
https://wikiless.chaosmos.io/wiki/List_of_highest-grossing_films?lang=en <- this seems good, I’ll edit the previous link.

My money is still on it being a masterpiece and people being morons.

They are basically cops. And the analogy holds on many level including that yes, some can genuinely be on your side and try to help you or fix the system from the inside, in a way, but it’s pretty much “luck based”, you have no foolproof way to tell one from the other.
The wise strategy is to be your own HR, study the contracts and the laws. If you go in blind trusting HR you can be lucky and have a good happy professiona life or get fucked.
Knowing also helps dramatically in undestanding where HR can realistically help, where it can harm and where it is going beyond expectations and is on your side.
Don’t expect them to put you above their own survival though…

No. Once I went in the forest near my home when I was on the brick of failing my year of study in college (a big deal where I’m from it would set me back a year of life basically and in my circle would have been very hard especially to my parents).
As I grew older, for light stuff I’d gravitate toward videogames and for heavier stuff I’d just be stuck in bed doomscrolling.

It is not the only point when it comes to adopting technologies, when it comes to maximizing privacy, yes maximizing privacy is tautologically the only point.
Because it makes the point for a more solid technology as far as privacy is concerned?
They way I uderstand your comment, LTT is big enought so as to negotiate contracts with sponsor without being forced to share the metric related to the performance of the sponsored segment.
I doubt that’s true for many creators.
I’m pretty sure it does, they do see how many people play the segment.
This is your brain on drugs.
America has lots of issues, no need to make things up.
You have a problem with profits, mate, not with ads.
I’m not disagreeing with you there, but also, I like the things I like to exist without waiting for the revolution.
My brother in Christ, being watched is the goal of any content creator, that’s unrelated to advertisements. Now Youtube ads are paid (lets simplify a bit) blindly once you click the video, it’s a metric, you see those if you want access to the video.
If the content of the video has the guy saying “thanks xyz for sponsoring this raid shadow legends” that’s a contract between the guy doing the video and the sponsor, following metrics agreed between themselves, it has no ties with “the purpose of youtube” simply because… it’s not youtube.
Will there be people doing cheap content to get “easy” sponsor money? Sure but if the content suck you won’t watch it. It’s a loss just like if the motetization was following any other driver (as long as the driver is… watching the thing rather than not).
I wish there was a way to pay for just a single video
There totally is, just send them a low amount of money or do the hwole Youtube Premium thing.
I don’t know, lemmy is where he got that impression. It may or may not be an accurate one.
