I swear, I’ll be watching a video about Linux, or cooking, or science, or cute animals and BAM! “Why China is the Devil” or “We Should Nuke North Korea” video smack in the middle of the recommendations! I don’t even watch any political stuff on YouTube (because it’s a shitshow), and I have my browser set to auto-delete all of Google’s cookies as soon as the browser is closed. Doesn’t matter if I’m on the actual YouTube website, NewPipe, or Invidious. Prey tell, YouTube, how is “Top 10 Reasons Why China Should Be Mainland Taiwan” at all a related video to “Maintainable Object Oriented Development in PHP, Part 4”? Especially when you somehow always fail to fetch the next part of the series for me?

    F-Droid isn’t going to run on Linux. I can use containerization technologies to run Android in Linux using something like Anbox or Waydroid, but that’s a lot of processing power wasted on Reddit, so I don’t particularly want to do that unless I have other uses for Android, which I don’t right now.
