@clippy

bait used to be believable

ESSAY INCOMING, if you post “i aint reading all that” YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!! but anyways »»»»»» i love how everyone jumped to the conclusion that i must hate the clippy protest in its entirety when i said what i did in my last post of me absolutely crashing out after seeing yet another clogged comment section on youtube without even stopping to actually think about it properly. the protest itself is noble, if not a bit stupid at times, but it tires me every time i go to check for something like clarification on a video’s comment section if something that the video showed was unclear or something but all i see is some more bs about the clippy protest. you do not need to spam post comments about clippy everywhere, that is not the point. all these people are achieving is clogging up another comment section which could be used to post actual advice, clarification, or to, you know, share your thoughts on the video. but now it’s all “clippy just wanted to help” “clippy won’t collect your personal info” “<some link to louis rossman’s original clippy video>”. the profile pictures are fine, maybe a bit repetitive after a while, but fine. i don’t really care about those. but anyways, corporations will not be looking into comment sections, seeing all this clogging them up, and be thinking “oh no, we must change our ways”. people know about the protest, and it really isn’t too hard to just ask about it if you don’t and you just see a clippy profile picture everywhere.

this is definitely a hot take but the internet has taken this clippy bs too far where its more shoved into my face than copilot and every ad i have ever gotten combined
