    We've come full circle. From trying to avoid cable network ads to trying to avoid YouTubeadss.

    I'm truly grateful that YouTube exists, arguably the best platform for learning and sharing in existence but I wonder if YouTube really is the future.

    With all the scummy behavior, betraying content creators, favoring corpo factory content more than 'You', I wonder how fast would YouTube fall if and when a real good alternative pops up.
