Funny that they FINALLY renamed that. I worked on a DVR product at a former job that supported YouTube Red and people I worked with were constantly confusing it with RedTube which is not quite the same thing.

I do the same thing. I end up looking for the same story on the left slanted and right slanted news sources, read both and try to interpolate something resembling reality. It's frustrating that this is necessary, I mean is it really that hard to just present the facts without an agenda?
MrMobodies:
I remembered 20 years ago someone telling me that the newspapers can't even get the football scores right between them let alone the reporting and that they are corrupt.
So I asked "Well what about the Independent?"
They replied: "Nope they're corrupt too."

Football and sports don't interest me so,  don't understand it too well and I don't read the sports section so I woudn't know if the newspapers are or were accurate or not with the scores and reporting.

I asked a couple of months ago about other payment methods for Odysee premium such as Paypal than giving them my card details.

They replied not "eta" yet but provided a link to one that does it in Bitcoin but I hope they eventually accept paypal.


--- Quote ---I'd like the premium but not happy with paying by card. Can you provide other ways to pay for it like Paypal as I do with Patreon and i don't mind it paying a bit more for it. I'd prefer that.

--- Quote ---We plan to in the future, but don't have an ETA for it. Maybe something like this would work in meantime: https://usa.visa.com/pay-with-visa/cards/prepaid-cards.html or https://paywithmoon.com/

Middle of the road journos (when they were still around) used to assure me that if you print vanilla news then both sides come at you claiming you're covering something up.
