Okay, this is the silliest thing, and it's very autistic of me. I used to watch him religiously but can't anymore because of his opinion on power sockets. He believes that it's superfluous having switches by every wall socket. I grew up in Australia, where we do have those switches unlike the US where he's from, and I believe he is objectively incorrect. To be fair to me, this isn't a onetime rant or opinion, it's an ingoing series of videos, as well as many response videos by other creators. He does make good content though, and I don't mean to spoil you on watching him at all, because this is the mildest of reasons to dislike someone 😅
Why do you want the switch??
Tell us why you want the switch please?
I’m from the UK where we also have switches, but I never toggle them; so they seem useless to me. We also have the safest plugs, so more don’t really need switches.
The only people I’ve seen use switches are the people that think saving 2p a year by turning them off is good, or my OCD (not shaming, I’m neurodiverse myself) brother would turn everything off at night and it was a pain in the morning having to remember to turn switches back on.
