    What’s a yewtu.be?

    Great video though. It’s like the fetishization of land. Housing is removed from it’s actual usefulness and treated like a commodity to speculate on. Zombie-ism is a great term for it. Housing prices shoot up for no explainable reason. The city becomes more and more empty. It’s a severe contradiction. There’s no even a place to live in a totally commoditfied world.

        Thanks. If it’s an open source front-end does that mean it connects to the same back-end? Are the contents the same? I’m guessing the point is to get around ads, to avoid tracking, to organize videos differently?

          Invidious utilizes a PostgreSQL database to cache video entries. By default every 30 minutes or so it attempts to connect to YouTube’s Servers via their APIs to refresh the local database. Basically invidious is like a RSS News feed reader with extras for YouTube.

    It’s the equivalent of owning random crap in your house you never use, except it’s not in your own private space, but occupying public space that can’t be used by other people anymore since someone already “claimed” it, just because they had too much money to waste (and no social responsibility at that)
