Shout-out to @pluralistic for a couple of posts on enshittification I linked to.

@funcrunch @medium @pluralistic The Brave browser allows me to watch YouTube and newspaper videos without pre-, mid- and end roll ads.
Just a tip if your entertainment hub allows it.

As I posted in an earlier blog entry, I don't use ad blockers. I don't feel entitled to unlimited free content.

Decided long ago that the whole Disney universe was a smokescreen to lull people into a sense that things are fundamentally better than they might seem. The subsequent expansion of Disney enterprises points to a willingness to wreak havoc on the planet, as well as draining energy from the pool of intellectual gravity. Was it Neil Postman who pointed out that we're amusing ourselves to death?
@funcrunch @medium @pluralistic i unsubscribed last year when they were added to the #BDS list. Haven’t really missed it, of all platforms it’s really the one where I hear the less about some must-see show from friends/family
