  • Can’t wait for Grayjay to finish their desktop client. I also hope they add better functionality to sponsor block, akin to the desktop or revanced experience.

    Honestly, the second biggest issue, after the lack of desktop client, is that it doesn’t completely solve the problem. I’ll still have to use Dropout’s, Motor Trend on Demand’s (now integrated into Discovery+), and other’s streaming service apps, instead of having it all in one place.

    That said, I’m not sure if Grayjay wants or intends to implement services that are more like a Netflix, where you’d be following shows instead of creators, considering their mission statement is to follow creators.

    I really want Dropout’s stuff, Roadkill, and Hot Rod Garage in Grayjay so I can simply add the videos to my watch later. For a show like Breaking Bad or something, I don’t think I’d want that in GrayJay, but I suppose it’d be good to have options.






  • I think kinda everyone did. I never loved the guy, I got weird vibes and thought he was majorly overrated, but I thought he was fine, and I respected the work he’d attached his name to.

    Hell, I still respect the hell out of starlink, as someone who had dial-up or old style sattelite with 15GB/mo limits until I moved out of my parents house 6 years ago. That shit’s cool as hell, I would’ve killed for it as a kid, and my dad did shell out for it when it became available.

    I don’t really attribute anything cool that’s come out of Elon’s companies to him any more though, in my mind all the credit goes to the talented leaders and engineers that are “under” him. There is something to be said about bankrolling these things, I suppose, but I don’t think it’s as noble a mission as we all once thought. He just wants to be liked by people and make money.




  • Can confirm it is real, I have it installed right now via revanced, Grayjay, and Firefox extension.

    Also, I have a terrible imagination, but that’s OK, as it’s open source and you can see how it’s calculated on their github.

    It takes the ration of likes to dislikes from users of the service, and applies that ratio to the total number of likes to estimate the total number of dislikes.

    It also archived a lot of video’s dislike counts before the dislike field was removed from the API.

    As a user of the extension who knows how it works (no thanks to yourself), take it with whatever sized grain of salt you feel comfortable with.

    Yeah that’s a very editorialized version and I hate that it’s the top comment.

    Obviously the coffee isn’t going to be 100x better or more unique than a normal espresso. The point of the video was not to “discover” this, and if that’s all you got out of it, you missed the point.
