1. Discovered that emergency calls would crash the phone (during an emergency)
2. The LineageOS April Fools prank.
After you’ve seen the two 15s ads, of course!
Now I have zero ability to discover new channels, and already my engagement is much lower since I’m limited to what I’m subscribed to, or whatever random search query I make.
My YouTube experience is significantly degraded now.
Fortunately, they appear to have created more interfaces for mass deleting old comments and likes / dislikes, so I’ve been utilising that too.
I look forward to seeing what else they punish me for, for using the settings and tools they provide.
What country do you live in? I can go to my local supermarket and buy dozens of pre-paid SIM cards with pocket change.
If you’re somehow associating your literal identity to a phone number, it sounds like you must be in a pretty heavy surveillance state.

Open-Source, E2E encrypted, offline first, syncs to all your devices via IPFS so no centralized server, etc.
No usernames or email addresses either.
It doesn’t use photos.
Look at the second example ( red images) and click the Display P3 option.
Do you see the symbol inside? No? Well then your display / monitor isn’t capable of showing a colour range higher than sRGB.
HDR is similar in respect to brightness and contrast.
If your device supports HDR, then there’s more steps in the brightness scale that your monitor can display.
None of the sites in this 1kB club even attempt anything noteworthy.
For example, one of them just says “persons name, web hacker”. Wowee.
