Google DOES make money from ads. A metric tuckton of it. Why the fuck else would they need your data other than to serve better ads???

RustRover isn't ready for actual usage, I've tried it
Unfortunately RustRover is still garbage for actual usage. And I refuse to use an ORM when I can just write the SQL in a more common syntax that everyone understands across every language instead of whatever inefficient library-of-the-week there is. Raw SQL is fine and can be significantly more performant. Don't be scared.
Calling someone a bigot based entirely on the words they use instead of the intent behind them is a great way to be wrong 80% of the time
While I think this may play a part, YouTube was unprofitable for more than a decade and probably still is right now. It's not greedy to want to pay server costs
My company is heavily considering raising premium prices because ad revenue is now equal to the subscription cost, and we're still very unprofitable. That's not greedy, that's basic business
People take the word "observe" at face value (no pun intended) a bit too often
I literally can withdrawal it. I can convert my points to cash at a 1:1 ratio, or redeem it for a flight and get 15% off the flight. Pretty tangible to me.
Please tell me what IDE you're using that's capable of highlighting SQL syntax that's embedded inside another language source file
Also please fucking stop with the "it's current year stop x." The year is not an argument.
That double indented from is hurting me
I remember when there was a huge amount of complaints when Reddit updated and the top posts started cycling multiple times per day (or per hour) instead of hanging around most of the day
How is YouTube a monopoly? You can use other platforms, YouTube is just the most popular. There aren't many because it's wildly unprofitable and people refuse to pay for it.
