    Never ever post a link to YouTube in a channel that are about privacy! Link to a privacy-friendly front-end like Piped instead.

          I looked at the hosted instances and none were working for me. The filter is a reasonable request. Being asked to write out a summary is not. I wrote the offending VPN on the tittle and a statement on what the video covers, that was still not to @Vendetta9076@sh.itjust.works standards. They are not entitled to my time to add metadata to things to their satisfaction.

        The other reply is a good answer, but also dropping a video with no context or explanation is a hallmark of content spammers and growth hackers.

        Even if looking like a crappy kind of poster isn’t enough to dissuade someone from just dropping a link and fucking off, providing some context and input to how and what the link will do and what it means as a post in the particular community is a lot better behavior and starts a conversation as opposed to doing nothing.

          I see. The responses to OP were pretty critical and I couldn’t understand why. Now I have a bit of context. Thank you

            I’m not saying this to insult you in any way, just to express my amazement:

            Y’all .world mfs are built different.

          How FB wiretapped millions with a VPN

          If its not to your liking that is unfortunate. You can also make a comment to elaborate and contribute to the community and discussion.

        Obviously I can only speak for myself as a non-impaired person, but I am often in spaces where I cannot listen to audio even on headphones. Also a summary is nice to get a feel if I even want to spend the time watching the video later.
