    I wouldn't really mind a smaller pool of videos, if it's guaranteed to have a standard of quality.

    I'd even pay for YouTube if they offered such a service, where they curate their creators. E.g. I sometimes like to watch repair channels where someone tinkers with something. I have a handful of channels that I like for that... but what if there are many more that I just can't find?

    While YouTube has everyone as users. Even like the most normie, boomer, zoomer users that think YouTube is the internet. No way they are going to switch for ideological reasons, unless the app just stops working.

    In Switzerland real estate generates a virtual rent that you need to pay income taxes on.

    E.g. even if you buy a house for yourself, the money that you save by not having to pay rent is calculated as extra income.

    The language itself is great, but Microsoft the docs are sometimes horrible or outdated.

    And most things feel like magic that you can't or don't need to understand. E.g. if you set up a modern asp.net project it's some huge boilerplate with configuration files and what not...

    Also standards often change... E.g. try figuring out what the best GUI framework is to create a full-fledged Desktop app in C#. There's like a few different ones, and most are for basic mobile-style apps or not really mature. The best I found so far is WPF, which is kinda old though and everyone thinks it's dead.

While I actually wanted to see it on my instance so I can join it an participate. What is the proper way to do it? Or is there some browser plugin that makes that easier?
