This. I'm a computer programmer, never been in a union, but after twenty years of startups I cannot believe how good it is to be at a small, stable, employee owned company.
Only looking back do I realize that the people doing the actual work were never in control, and just how damaging that is.
To pour you life and soul into building something (time, and time again), and then have it taken away from you again, and again.
Never going back.
Well, not necessarily, right? It could be funded any number of ways, but on YT you're locked in to either watching their ads, or paying their premium.

There are even companies springing up who will run and host it for you, for a price, of course.
Dare I ask where he is hiding this, and what bonkers evil regimes you are referring to?
Why "never support"?
Here's the definition of default I'm using (from Google):
a preselected option adopted by a computer program or other mechanism when no alternative is specified by the user or programmer. (weird it specifies "a computer program or other mechanism", but whatever)
My argument is that the default meal including meat is what makes including meat the most popular choice, not the other way around.
Sure, but you could e.g. start with slop and then let people request something different. That's what I meant by 'default'. Perhaps there's a better world?
I sure there's a fancy word in psychology, but it's like if everyone is given choice x automatically, then it shouldn't be a surprise that x seems to be what people prefer.
I've noticed a similar thing in the Subway sandwich store: there are approximately the same number of vegetables and meats available, but if you look at the menu there is just one 'veggie' option, and a multitude of different meat combinations.
Forgive me for only TLDW and not watching, but was ack mentioned?
I've never looked back.
