This is true.
Adam’s target audience must be teenagers. That was hard to watch.
I remember watching him as a teenager and thought it was the coolest show ever. Now I don’t think I can watch him. So I guess his target audience is different.
Same for the teenager part.
The Podcast (Dialogues instead of Monologues) is content for the older audience, though: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLet00UQnlQoUKqSB5-oFmrwpnnVc4C4A8
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I love angry comedians… but you weren’t kidding: That was a brutal watch. He makes some decent points but he presents it like Jim Cramer crossed with a 10 year old making fart jokes.
God damn, seems like everyone tried so hard to be AVGN all of a sudden.
YouTube recommended this video, and based on the thumbnail alone it looked like sensationalist garbage. I didn’t watch it. I think it’s because i watched a single video about “de-googling” and now the algorithm dives straight into the rage-bait deep-end of that topic.
What happened to Adam Conover? I used to actually like his content. I probably agree with his message, but IDK because I only managed to get 2m45 into the video by skipping and playing double speed, and I’m not watching the rest.
I don’t remember him being so loud and aggressive. What the fuck’s up with the poop jokes?
He does longer format (i.e. 1+ hour) where there’s much less animated energy but still lots of cursing. Some of them are interesting (because of the guests), but he’s too full of himself and comes off as unlikable
Seems many on YouTube now has this over-boisterous very fake broadcaster voice. I did watch the whole thing, but my wife and I had the same reaction. Good message mostly, but tough to listen to.
I hate that the internet is reliant on tech giant infrastructure. I think part of the problem is that data centers and energy grids are not decentralized or capable of being sustained in an open source manner (unless a benevolent entity funds such a thing)
maybe one day every chimney will be a solar powered mesh NAS
There are also cool research projects like this https://www.space.com/space-solar-power-satellite-beams-energy-1st-time
You can deploy open source software or your own apps even on big tech infrastructure, on your own domain.
The problem isn’t infrastructure, it’s that access to content isn’t decentralized any more. Access to content is reliant on Google search or social media algorithms (who decide what to promote).

I think people overlook how much of the internet Google helped create too, I kinda feel for them fighting against endless scammers, manipulators, gifters, etc. They’ve made a lot of peoples lives easier without charging them for it, this disproportionately helps poorer people more especially tools like maps, translate, and search.
It’s always a little amusing when grandiose anti-Google claims are made on a platform owned by Google.
Yeah, I guess my comment did come off like that. Oh well, live and learn.
No worries mate
Its about reach… You go to the place that has the most place for your message to be heard if getting your message heard is his priority.
Oh I get that, I’d do the same in his position. I just literally meant I found it amusing.
Dude… You gotta use some way to explicitly say youre joking and not being critical. I personally like to use
/sto say sarcasm or just in general not serious just being a silly goose.
They also provide it by OnionShare but nobody found the link.
I don’t know what that is, but it sounds like something to check out. Thanks for the heads up.
