Interview with Jon Emery from Life’s Checkmark

I apologize for not being here since I yelled at YouTube for several minutes in January. I've been busy with other projects and I've just not had anything I felt was worth talking about. Now I'm back because I have something I want to show you that I cannot do on YouTube. I want to show you a sound comparison of two devices I have in my room, one of which you will notice is noticeably going deaf from a technical standpoint. Hosted on Acast.

We all know what YouTube is, and the big names make it look like it's a walk in the park. It is most definitely not. Small. Creators are routinely targeted for the most random crap. False flaggings, channel terminations, having privileges taken away from no reason, and more. Isn't a huge number in your subscriber count, as in 25,000? Plus, then you're a target. This needs to end right now Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Here we go again. Another social media platform has decided it would be cool to throw people out and not care. This time it’s Clubhouse, and they will regret doing it. I intend to make 100% sure of that.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-evil-chocolate-cookie/message Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hello humans. I know I’m late to the party and demonstrating this thing, and I know I’ve barely been around lately, but it’s time to fix that.

This is probably the stupidest thing I have ever created in my life. I don’t know what to say to you other than listen to the backstory and you’ll kind of understand it.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-evil-chocolate-cookie/message Hosted on Acast.

Reddit has recently announced changes to the pricing of their API. These changes mean third-party clients will be asked to pay an exorbitant fee to continue existing and actually working. This is a problem, especially for people who have to use any kind of accessibility. Reddit has made it very clear that they don’t care about the accessibility of their official AppNG website. Now, they want to cut off the accessibility provided by third-party clients. We need to show them. This is not OK. In the course of the episode, I talked about a post that’s becoming quite a big deal.

After this weekend, I’ve had it with YouTube. From throwing copyright claims around like confetti to false flags for community guidelines violations, the platform is making the lives of content creators a living hell and it seriously needs to stop.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-evil-chocolate-cookie/message Hosted on Acast.
