This guy has lots of devices. 1st world problems, so sad. (Just kidding though) What if you dedicate one device to watching YouTube? Or is your approach to devices truly this chaotic that you have to have every app on every device? Why even have more than one device then?
God forbid you watch videos in your tv, computer and phone depending on what you're doing during the day
Yeah valid point. My computer is my TV, so I only have 2 devices to switch between.
I like the ability to move around to different devices and be able to keep the same video.
I love Manhwa recaps, audiobooks, etc. There are like 12 hours long sometimes. So it's so much more convent to walk away from my computer and go to the bathroom or lay down and It just picks right up from the same part in the story.
90% of the time YouTube is running on monitor #2, but the convenience factor of the last 10% can make life worth living sometimes.
That's awesome if that works for you. By all means, sacrifice privacy for comfort. It's not affecting you in the immediate short term, so why not? We're all different and it doesn't help trying to prescribe approaches to intetnet strangers. But yeah, I still get your frustration. A short while ago these weren't such consistent issues. We're at a crossroads, Twitter, Google, Apple, Microsoft, shit's changing y'all.
The choice, as always, is up to you. And the all too familiar factor of comfort is always threatening to lull you into capitalist oblivion. You are a number, you are a statistic, a means to an end... But not necessarily. Choose your battles. Set those boundaries. Protect yourself and be awake. Yo bro, you woke? I'd rather be woke than aslope.
