    After fifteen years, I cancelled my Netflix last year. Don’t miss it at all.

    I think all these streaming platforms forget that not all of us need to watch their content 24/7. I spend less than an hour watching television a day while eating food and that’s it.

    Did you know that you can still enjoy Youtube ad-free (or the occasional 10-second skippable ad). How do you do it? By not watching youtube at all aside from the random how-to video. Since I watch less than an hour of youtube a month on average, I see essentially zero ads.

      I wish to break my youtube addiction. Every night I end up going down rabbit holes with a “just one more” attitude that would make a gambling addict blush.

      The way I got around ads was adblockers and the like. Or using the new piped website. But honestly, I wish that I had the will that you have to just drop it and never use it again.
