    It’ll be fun finding all those “antiporn”, “antidei”, “antilgbtq+” fine people watching exactly that. Bonus points for .va domains.

      You can favorite things, and create lists. And their algorithm seems to show you things you might like based on that and your other views. I found it quite useful. Obviously I used a garbage email address.

          Maybe it’s akin to raising your arms submissively and having your thigh gap n junk get 3D scanned / inspected by a fully clothed TSA agent. Degrading, but not without a little thrill, no?

      There was a time when they were pushing the step sibling fetish real hard, like, all the videos in the front page were that, and then they put a banner saying “tired of seeing step____? Why not make an account and filter it out?”

      You can follow uploaders, but since the mass removal of 85% of their videos I doubt the website has ever gotten better. I had a few favourites noted down but none of them exist now.

        I mean, I’m not mad about why they removed so many videos. They had a massive CSAM and revenge porn problem, to the point that you could often find it on the front page. They also had really ineffectual methods for victims to report offending content, to get it taken down. There was also the whole “victim can only begin the takedown process (which likely won’t even get the video taken down) if they know it has been posted” problem. And their fix was to only allow uploads by verified users.

      My guess is following content creators that you like, and some people pay for the creator’s premium videos.

            That’s what that is. You copy the link and type

            yt-dlp https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
            

            And it downloads, if you add -x between the command and the URL it extracts the MP3 (If you want music).

            It has 100% less ads and malware than those shady websites (who are just running yt-dlp in the background).

          You can use the yt-dlp executable in the Youtube-DLG GUI interface. The interface is fine, the only thing wrong with it was that the executable behind it couldn’t keep up with YT fuckery. They may have fixed it since then, but once I started manually updating it with yt-dlp I never stopped, so I don’t even know anymore. And I’m sure there are better alternatives, I just got used to using this one.

          So if you want the GUI front end, it’s profoundly easy. Download Youtube-DLG, rename yt-dlp.exe to youtube-dl.exe, and then put it into the appropriate folder (%appdata%/youtube-dl/ on Windows). Overwrite or just delete the existing youtube-dl.exe because it doesn’t work anyway.

          If you are installing Youtube-DLG for the first time you may have to manually install ffmpeg as well, if memory serves.

          The sole drawback is that, for obvious reasons, updates are now manual. Every so often YT breaks it again and I just go download yt-dlp again, rename it, and put the new one in the Youtube-DLG folder. Job done.

              Not sure if this hack has a name, but usually once someone in a comment tree makes a joke about downvotes — e.g., clowning on an edit complaining about a downvote — rules are suspended for all comments that follow, and you can accrue lots of downvote salutes FOR FREE.

              (Maybe not my comment since I’m late to the downvote party, but here you go;)

                I also got the party started by being the first to downvote myself. The first person to upvote me probably made it look like I didn’t downvote myself.

                But the second person to upvote me… Now that’s the real bastard. They made my comment seem like it deserved upvotes, and ushered in others who thought this was a comment worthy of their support.

                If I ever find out who gave me that second upvote… I’d probably be like, “huh? What second upvote? What are we even talking about?”

    Pornhub has not worked with Mixpanel since 2021, which means that the stolen data would be from that year or earlier. Reuters, who contacted some Pornhub customers to confirm the breach, was able to authenticate that the user data that pertained to those customers was accurate – but was several years old which would be consistent with the Mixpanel data.

    We checked our accounts and this is what we found…

    Sorry, but I don’t think we’re emphasising enough that Pornhub shared details of its users, such as their search history and watched videos, with an external company and that external company kept that data for over four years after their relationship ended.
