[#]IT became the new #TV
Quitting YouTube + #Statistics
It's not just #YouTube but also as other activity using #machines as people aer coding non-stop, educating or whatever.
We can't stop playing with machines it seems and losing warmth of #people while habits get over-used / too heavy.
Information Technology started off good - and was needed - but now has inevitably become #unhealthy also as things move on in to #commercial phases.
And still we're no nearer to making #friendship.
We're occasionally growing #plants mostly but watching TV again irresistibly - some on big screens no different to 50" inch TV screens like a TV on steroid as seen in living room windows while walking past as big as the window itself.
Some of us scoffed at TV being too much of a large object in past but you probably have a larger one now. 📺
What's prompted me to say and do this is also...
1🔴 The @Invidious filter sites (that remove adverts) has been largely suppressed
And so it's also hard to escape code for tracking and adverts in general that the new #TV is with tracking and adverts - which is worse than before and unacceptable.
[#]Invidious is good and might still be in future but anyway it's about self-moderation and it was feeding existing bad #habits (for me at least).
2🔴 I need to do something more with my life.
Make my own shit, even with stuff already downloaded from the past - of which there is plenty... I admit it's hard and nobody else is around but still...
You have to figure how your own life can be, so saying this aloud helps me and perhaps you.
Instead of only watching others that you will never talk to while absorbing and tons of #Hollywood movies, #adverts and bad #code (even if you don't see it) then we have to probably create friendships to replace this and what surely #online is only going to increase in the bad things.
