youtube? the place with free quality documentaries, free knowledge in the easiest to digest video form about a huge variety of topics? the spot where you can learn life skills, cooking, hobbies, maths, physics, programming, among many others, with visualised tutorials showing every part of every step with explenations?

what on earth is happening to the internet these days? absolute insanity

social media is shit and i get restricting twitter or tiktok, but youtube? it seems so bizarre to me

I have struggled to filter with YouTube Kids what is allowed. The setup is default allow with channel denies (opposite of a good firewall), so I have taken to yt-dlp and Jellyfin to get around it. I don't agree with the law as written, but I get the intent. Parents should be more active in their kids's lives versus the state.
