Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Look I get it, but also, I like fahrenheit and miles. They are more intuitive and closer to the 'feeling'. 100 degrees is really hot. 100 mph is really fast. Maybe that's my own bias from growing up with it though

I also find inches easier to work with unless I'm making something with my 3d printer. Fractions are just easier when you're making something big with looser tolerances.

If we switched to metric, everything we currently have built will suddenly have weird measurements. I don't want my 10 foot even high ceiling to be 3.048 meters. 😩 ^/s^

Yep, this is why all the buildings spontaneously exploded in places that changed to metric. /s

Things get phased out. Certain buildings will adhere to old code and new ones would adhere to new codes in metric.

I'll measure in miniature Jack Daniel bottles before I give up mph
