Pro Tip - Clear your RUclips watch history and then pause it, you wont get any recomendations
Speak for yourself. Some of us, myself included, were intelligent enough to realise and not bother taking part.
I've no socials and it's great!
RUclips is literally a social media app@@hugokeys602
FOMO. It's real and scary. Look at drivers around you when you're at a red light (unless you yourself are one of these) - most people have to check things on their phones. Just yesterday actually saw a couple in their vehicle scrolling their feeds (yes, including the driver) while going down the road. Of course, driver's attention wasn't given to driving and he kept slowing down, speeding up and weaving. It's scary what we've become... Even at dinner time, in restaurants, families, people no longer interact with each other - they have to scroll to see what they may be missing when what they're truly missing is who is in front of them...
It’s so true, the number of drivers I see everyday scrolling on their phones while driving down the street is scary! Most don’t even wait to get to a stoplight. The restaurant thing is so true as well, I went out to dinner with 4 family members a while back and I was the only one not scrolling on my phone the entire time we sat at the table. We barely spoke to each other.
I was born in the 80's, and am definitely a child of the internet, but I've never really found myself doomscrolling. I deeply resent intrusions of privacy, and being "the product," so I just don't have the usual quartet of social media. I tend to use the phone in public more for times that I don't want somebody awkwardly attempting small talk with me.
now i actually thank god that my parents didnt buy me a smartphone before me turning 18
@darpfbi9234 You have to do the same things for your kids, too.
The societal shift to digital interactions is truly scary. If you slightly comment on that, you'll get mad comments. I say that because my personal experience has always been negative even when I ask somebody "may you put away your phone?". I'm always against close-mindedness, but in this case, I wish I had some likeminded people around me 😪

The fact that there are extremely intelligent people continuously making the app more and more addictive and want to make you use the app more and more.
Got your point broda
Yeah instead of advancing medicine, environmental or space technology we decided that we should pay really intelligent people to work on making apps that waste your time more addictive and profitable.
or AI
I'm glad that even though I waste a lot of time on social media apps, the biggest one is long form content on RUclips where I wanna learn something new and fun.
Yea it's true but you don't take in most of the info as our brain doesn't work that way ,if you actually want to learn something,take notes ,and go through them untill you remember it properly (neuroplasticity)
RUclips works in a different way. Watching a video recommended to you feels like you learnt something, but actually the knowledge is often cannot retain well in your brain because it does not get used.
@@qwertytopoCan agree with this guy. The best way to learn is to reinforce the knowledge by taking notes & then teaching others.
I know what you mean and in terms it's correct but don't let the slightly better feeling that you learned something fool you. After some struggles I was able to delete everything besides RUclips and also don't watch shorts at all anymore. But just because informative Videos with good production quality feel better, we often jump around and don't actively try to learn the stuff we see. So if this falls flat we're back at the beginning and just spend time being passive instead of active, maybe even worse than before. I mean 60 min tiktok? Hell no what a waste of time but 3x20 min vids on RUclips? Easy! But just passive consumed it's not really better unfortunately
Which in turn means you'll be bombarded with ads, that the people on RUclips are paid to shove in your face, constantly. Nobody is innocent in this.

*Revelation 3:20*
Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
HEY THERE 🤗 JESUS IS CALLING YOU TODAY. Turn away from your sins, confess, forsake them and live the victorious life. God bless.
Revelation 22:12-14
And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.

Everyone is overreacting. $50/year works out to less than $5/month. Mkbhd gives 50% of profits to the wallpaper creators. Besides no one is forcing by you to pay for premium, the free version works fine

@idehenebenezer you don't need to convert people in the replies to a RUclips comment
i think it benefits content creator cause they had to learn editing and pacing and utilize them to keep you on the platform, thus they learn many skills. the viewers are the one suffering a lot by wasting time.

Now, hear me out. After watching this, do NOT go berserk and purge all the apps and delete all accounts. You WILL have withdrawal symptoms and the reentry to all these apps will be worse than your current scenario. Just like you train up with moderation so your body gets used to the workouts, train out of social media with moderation to be successful in the long run :)

Color? Whats that. I have it in grayscale so nothing is “eye catching” I have been aware of the downfall of social media for a couple years which is why I have never scrolled on any useless short form apps. The only real social media I have is RUclips. And yes I have been way too attached to RUclips long form videos and I’m trying to stop it. It’s just tough given the fact that it’s always in arms reach. I am truly scared for this generation when people actually have to grow up and get a job for a sustainable life.
If you want to avoid random videos feeds on Home tab/screen, except your subscriptions, just trun off RUclips watch history.

When it comes to the user side, social media mainly serves two purposes: either it’s your job, or you’re trying to make it your job. The other purpose is to show that you have a superior or better life than others, and you want to display it and receive attention for it.
Outside of that, it’s completely useless-who needs it apart from those two reasons?
I use technology intensively, and I change phones very regularly. I love taking photos and videos, etc., but I don’t have any social media accounts.
Genuine question, if you’re creating art through photos and videos how do you share those experiences with others? Asking because I went into music to perform for others, not really with the intention of making it my job (which is why I didn’t do it after college lol) but art is much more valuable (to me) than doing something creative for a job.
I love that I don’t just like pure tech videos from mrwhosetheboss , I just know he produces quality content no matter what

RUclips is also a social media app just so you know, but seems like you are being very healthy!
@@Coolgamertag120true, and it is the only true one I use. Never used insta or TikTok anyway and will never use. X? Rarely used, once a year maybe lol
@@Coolgamertag120 I think RUclips is one of the few "social media apps" that can be set up to not behave like a social media app. Start page recommendations? Just disable history on RUclips and open RUclips on the subscriptions page. Sidebar recommendations? Just remove it with an extension. Also, it's extremely channel dependent since RUclips is a platform where you have educational content and brainrot content served to you at the same time.

Never installed TikTok in the first place, hehe

Tried tiktok for a few days and got so bored I deleted the crap. Never understood why people like that app so much😂 I find what I want on sources that actually show videos the correct way so it can also fit my TV and can flip the phone sideways🙈 Vertical videos also makes me loose interest very fast. Annoying when videos are the wrong way.
Ngl I absolutely hate the new "recommended" notification on RUclips I was like "oh look a new notification" and sees a short from a random guy I watched like 2 days ago
Or they show shorts like "3 seconds ago" and I was like "I'm early" but the thing is that short has been uploaded for 9 hours
