Is it a conspiracy? For months, YouTubers have been quietly griping that something looked off in their recent video uploads. Following a deeper analysis by a popular music channel, Google has now confirmed that it has been testing a feature that uses AI to artificially enhance videos. The company claims this is part of its effort to “provide the best video quality,” but it’s odd that it began doing so without notifying creators or offering any way to opt out of the experiment.

    The app wouldn’t start on my roku. It said “can’t start because there’s not enough space” so I deleted YouTube.

    LOL fuck you YouTube assholes! I can’t believe it was that easy. Good riddance!

        Well I started deleting apps like crazy and it would still not run. So I did the next best thing and got rid of the problem all together!

        It was freeing!

          Heeeellll yeah dude. You know what, I didn’t have the full picture, I do like how you got here.

          Next steps. Old PC that’s too slow? Fuuuuck Roku,nrhsyre selling your data anyway. Look up how to throw a little shitter Linux distro on there, get an adapter for your TV and a cheap mini keyboard and remote. The world is your oyster.
