The Chrome team says they’re not going to pursue Web Integrity but…

it is piloting a new Android WebView Media Integrity API that’s “narrowly scoped, and only targets WebViews embedded in apps.”

They say its because the team “heard your feedback.” I’m sure that’s true, and I can wildly speculate that all the current anti-trust attention was a factor too.

    Personally, I can’t imagine what is on YouTub that’s worth watching. I don’t know, I haven’t used it in ages.

      Just to name a few that still post every week or so. I’m sure there’s others. Tom Scott is one that posts often but I left out, I don’t sub because of the gameshows he puts on his main channel, I would prefer if he only did the red shirt fun world stuff videos and move the gameshow shit to another secondary channel. I also left out JayzTwoCents and LTT. Anyway I digress, there are definitely channels I miss that don’t post frequently anymore or at all, but these are a few that I enjoy presently.

      I updated this post over 12 hours later to add a few more. 😅

        VSauce2 is so weird. His topics are interesting and research behind the vids is done well, but the presentation is, well, not for me. Too many jump cuts and “reveals”.

      I think that’s unfair, there is so much content there and so many content creators that saying there is nothing worth watching just comes out as snobbish.

      The sheer variety is the key to YouTube’s dominant position. Whatever subject you want to watch something about, there’s a very good chance you’ll find it.

      I can’t speak for your particular interests, but in my experience there is something for pretty much every niche. That’s what keeps YouTube in their dominant position as well.
