I don't know if this is just YouTube or this is a feature, but there is a time bug with YouTube. Every video that is >1 week old (and younger than 2 weeks) will still using the format "... days ago" instead of "1 week ago" like how it is intended.

For example, this video is >1 week old, which means that it should show the "1 week ago", but instead, it still shows "12 days ago".

    Translation: "12 ngày trước" means "12 days ago" in Vietnamese.

    Looks intentional to me.

    We need to find a video and photo storage site with tax dollars so people can store all their crap and ever worry about it being deleted even though it’s obvious that is not the case ever

    I think it's intentional too. the condition is probably if < 14 days: show day else ...

    it makes sense from a human view, as seeing "1 week ago" is less informative than "8.. 9. 10 .. days ago.." at such low values it's still valuable to see the exact value imo. Feels nice to me

    @AvatarOfKaine Why make another centralized service and pay for it with tax money? That's just another point of failure and disappointment!

    I'd suggest starting a decentralized storage service with asymmetric encryption for data. So everyones data is spread across everyones computers but encrypted so only you can decrypt it yourself using your keys!

    ofc that system would blow in disk space really fast... so it might be worth starting the system limited to some max file size or something... or a space donation system, so everyone can reserve how much they loan to the community and get something back for it... maybe if you loan 200MB you can also store 200MB in the system... so it takes 400MB on your disk but you get the advantage of it being decentralized and available forever... eh... dunno.. it's a design in progress xD

    @Hazarth those systems exist already

    @Hazarth yeah you’re talking about slice which is ethereum based which is kind of a crap idea

    I mean better methods could exist but just the same availability could be interrupted if someone wipes their machine or goes offline for part of the content

    @AvatarOfKaine fuck anything crypto based, that's a marketing fad
