21:48 What should we dig into next?
As long as you are still sourcing the content from youtube, you’re not really de-googled.
Baby steps.
Sure, but with the critical mass of videos on Youtube, and the sheer impossibility of consensually mirroring them all on another platform, accessing YT videos with Invidious or Newpipe is at least safer than wading unprotected onto Google’s platforms.
The video is available on floatplane as well if you want to watch not on YouTube/invidious
And bilibili
Yeah it’s practically impossible to completely escape GAFAM unless we renounce ‘digital life’ or make a humongous effort or whatever. It’s about reducing / minimizing the amount of shit they know about us, not being the coolest most degoogled guy in the room. I can’t afford to quit my job just because they make me use Microsoft Authenticator. So yeah essentially it’s better to use Newpipe than Youtube, what a great thing that some dude or dudette decided to develop it for free, Peertube? Even better, yay options, end of story.
