“They just try to earn as much money as possible on their way out.”

I personally think people need to distance themselves from centralised platforms as soon as possible. The sooner, the better. Derek Taylor, who knows Google’s YouTube very well, has just produced a video that explains what 'free' video hosting turned into. I personally can speak about a dozen or so social control media platforms; they’re all a waste of time and they get worse over time. They won’t last. They just try to earn as much money as possible on their way out. █
