Whoaaa, easy there tough guy

Okay, you're downvoted but I'd prefer it if people weren't afraid to post controversial opinions. So even though I disagree with you I'll ask... what metric are you using that makes you think he's doing a good job?

I say don't let them crawl. I'd rather the server and bandwidth costs go to real people rather than bots

Youtube is much harder to migrate from. It has a loooot of data. Where else can I upgrade 60 minutes of 4k gopro footage for free?

I dunno, I'm 40 and have definitely bought things because of ads. Highly targeted ones on Instagram have introduced me to a lot of cycling gear I wouldn't have otherwise known about. It seems like most of the youtube ads are pretty bad though

I was an early user of reddit, and it had a lot of the same problems this place had. There were no "smaller subreddits", everything was small. But the quality of content was good, so I stuck around. It really takes a lot of effort to build a community, it doesn't come for free. I hope you stick around and help 😀
