YouTube. From around 2008 - 2016, it was pretty much my only source of media and entertainment. I was subscribed to so many different channels and never missed an upload. I could spend hours just binge watching all types of content. These days, I only watch / follow a handful of creators. Really only visit the site when I have nothing better to do.
I'm the same way. And Google's algorithmic bullshit they pull makes it really hard to find quality content that actually keeps me interested. They killed the "magic" of finding a new favorite creator.
Same. I can't tell if the content has declined or I've just outgrown it, but it went from my go-to my, "eh, if I've got time."
