My red flag would be showing them NewPipe, with recommendations turned completely off.

Guilty.

Having no actual presence on social media is considered “creepy” by modern social standards, instead of what I view it as: more secure.

I find avoiding social media helps reduce encounters with the insane side of people who somehow appear to be relatively normal in real life.

For instance, I actually like my inlaws in real life, despite having some very different views than they do. On Facebook however, they’re complete fucking idiots that I wouldn’t give the time of day because they would just argue with me about it.

as far as i care, having social media makes you more likely to be insane, because of the aggressive amount of influence that these sites and applications hold over people.

I actually got a date once by saying I had 10 laptop computers and no Facebook account. Not a good match in other regards, but the person was cool about privacy.

Same, but you were talking about NewPipe. I assume you use that on your phone.

And while you can disable the search history there, too, it often is convenient not to have to type the name of that thing you want to listen to while you’re driving, so many people leave it enabled.

It has “hot” but I don’t think the feed is personalized.

Not even the wackiest scenario he’s done.

Bro legit took this one incredibly seriously and talked about the consequences of having to explain sudden freak accident deaths to pre-schoolers and how conspiracy theories would proliferate about Reagan being responsible because supposedly he had pushed for the launch to stay on schedule even when issues came up because the plan was for him to make s phone call to the crew of the ship from the SotU address that year.

Basically Reagan would go down in pop culture canon as being the man who murdered big bird, and whatever consequences that sprung from that would be the biggest shift vs present timeline instead of the obvious fact that big bird would be canonically dead since all the normal viewers would have seen him go up in a fireball and die.

So what you are saying is that we would have flying cars and free healthcare if Big Bird had died in the Space Shuttle?
