No, they don't.

>He is downloading a video made by another user

Without a license from that user to make a copy of their video.

gnuj3 · 2 years ago
Yeah, if that other user copyrighted the video.

>You are archiving it for your own personal use

That is not the usual definition of archiving. That is just piracy.

Does YT own the content? Its not exactly the same as movies, music or TV shows. He is downloading a video made by another user and uploaded to a publicly accessible website. Account is not even required to watch YT unless its +18 content. So what is Google going to argue here that user X stole users Y content and they are just good middle man samaritan?

Sure, anyone can use any name, but should they? For instance there have to be some limitations on calling yourself General Hospital unless you actually have a medical license.

Sure but X doesn’t indicate it being a hospital or any other institution that would have people confused. Its just a letter.

The ones that are so offensive to Hacker News commenters that they will rail wildly against them, call YouTube’s business practices scummy because of them, and make a new hobby of blocking them rather than pay $14 a month for YouTube Premium.

I havent seen an advertisement on YT in about 20 years. Did none of these people ever heard of uBlock Origin?

> Social media makes me feel bad, especially when I start my day with it. I will never touch TikTok because I think it's cancer for the human attention span. I deleted my Facebook a long time ago and never looked back. I don't give a shit about Instagram. I wish I didn't use Reddit, but am finding it increasingly cynical and tiresome.

Sorry to break it to you dude but HN is social media...

Well, it’s not though.

Have you looked at Obsidian? It offers paid sync service which hasn’t lost a file for me for the last year or so I’ve been using the sync service.

You can also sync via iCloud for free

Not sure but these serif fonts need to breathe more. This is an iPhone 14.

Agreed on that. I had to take a break from reading this post just because of how unreadable that blog UI is
