I’d be more worried to put something with a battery in an environment of like 200 degrees Celsius. I hope I’m just wrong … but to me that sounds like fire

It definitely does yea. I haven’t been on plebbit outside of a random search result for something I could not find otherwise.

As much as I hate to say it, the “migration” wasn’t as large as some people would have thoughts it’s going to be. Hoomans. Stoopid hoomans.

Without a doubt “Monty Python and the Holy Grail”.

Well… there we go :)

Didn’t plebbit suffer from the same issue in the beginning? As far as I remember it kind of self-resolved itself back then an people migrating from /whatever to /thisIsTheBiggerWhatever.

I guess it could be handy to encourage mods to keep an eye on it and at some point have their community vote\decide if they want to “merge” or something.

I’m not questioning what’s right and wrong or if this even changes someone’s opinion.

It’s merely a technical approach that can somewhat work until it’s filled up with the same crap again in a few weeks.

The person got there once - it’ll likely happen again. But combining this with conversation and actual facts, can be a start.

It’s not going to be easy. most likely she’ll be exposed to this shit elsewhere too, not only on youtube. fully reset the browser in ANY case. delete history, cookies, everything.

besides that, I see multiple options. you can consider them all or in various combinations

• completely block youtube (for example via hosts)

• new account

• unsubscribe from everything

• reset/delete watch history

• https://myadcenter.google.com/personalizationoff?hl=en

  • disable personalized adds
  • from there go to the “my activiy”
  • https://myactivity.google.com/page?page=my_ad_center_preferences&pli=1
  • delete all

• enable restricted mode (essentially making it a kids account)

• change location/region of the account

• go here: https://myaccount.google.com/u/0/yourdata/youtube?hl=en&pli=1

  • disable watch history
  • disable search history

I agree, but whatever they say … who do I trust? I’m paranoid enough to trust only my own network capture.

I’m almost certain that is not conform with GDPR in europe to pre-enable checkboxes.

I’m no lawyer but I read it that way and will probably be disappointed.
