Plus if it goes bankrupt he won't be in control of it from what I gather. People seem way too addicted to it to leave though.

Get a custom OS on Android and install free standing apks. Actually, many apks are hacked anyway. So find and just install them. No need to change OS. But rooting+custom OS might offer ways to make it way easier.

It's time for a fairness doctrine in every country. And curriculum that teaches you what fake news is, how to spot it on social media etc.

Until an alternative to Youtube happens, then this will continue.

You think wages are high here but forget that the USA has no healthcare, no mental healthcare, no social safety networks for if you lose your job, and suffers from overpriced food+housing just like everyone else.

You also get nickle and dime'd for literally everything, including having to tip if you eat out, tip to ride in an Uber, have food delivery, or exist. Drivers licenses cost money. Your birth certificate does. Your car insurance costs. If you can even afford an overpriced car even used.

And even if you get get healthcare through your job, it still sucks. You still pay "co pays" and "deductibles" just to receive care. If you get care at all that is - if the insurance company "decides" to cover your scan.

And you still owe whatever percentage after that insurance doesn't cover. Say your important surgery is $100k in costs (yes they cost that much here often). Even with decent insurance you're still owing thousands afterwards, more than likely depending on the insurance plan.

Forget getting an ambulance for emergencies. Even if your insurance covers it, it may be "out of the insurance network" and therefore not covered, but how could you know that? You're unconscious. And you better tell your body not to get cancer either or into a serious accident, because that can run your medical bills into the millions.

The USA has no decent vacation time, has no required maternity leave or medical leave. You will eat your own childcare costs into the thousands, and some people's partners opt to stay home rather than work to absorb those.
