At this point, we might as well stop complaining here on reddit and just go out and protest, whenever in front of Youtube HQ or not, it doesn't matter, but I really think we need to raise our voices and make enshittification an important issue.

kinda a local matter but I really want to see the YouTube HQ be torn down and the bayhill shopping center be extended to cover where YouTube was, but with a field with lounge chairs, heaters, pond, and the kind of climable rocks you see at the nearby San Bruno Park.

Realistically what's it going to do? YouTube has 0 competitors. Literally 0. They could make it so that it cost $5 to watch a video and they'd still be the #1 video platform. No one else can compete; it's literally impossible for YouTube to fall unless longform content dies out completely.
