I have recently started a new position and am required to use an app that has three Facebook trackers, one of them being a Facebook location tracker according to Exodus App Privacy in order to get your food when it would literally work perfectly fine ordering to a real cashier or shit even a website rather than having to download an app.
I have also read many stories of people that live in apartments that require them to use a mobile app for god damn LAUNDRY. All you need, is a card reader, and it will work perfectly fine like it has been for the longest time.
Privacy concerns aside, it is just annoying that you need this app and that app and this app and that app and it just clutters space on your phone. Security concerns too as now they have all of this additional info on you online, such as your phone number your email your real name, instead of just your credit card info like a card reader would have. And I am willing to guarantee that their security model is absolute horseshit because they have such a small team of engineers working on the app and the servers.
Literal enshitification

How Ironic I click the piped link. It throws a can’t play error and asks me to download the app. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.
It works for me. Ate you serious?
It plays fine for me on my phone. On the site ofc.
Your comment convinced me to click on one of these piped links for the first time out of curiosity to see what result I would get …
“Error 1002”… Whatever the fuck that means
Error for me too.
I absolutely love the piped project but its never worked for me, ever. I use invidious instead which works about 80% of the time lol…
Yeah I get the 10002 error. I’m setup that it tries to view it via Firefox mobile version with an ad blocker running.
Even though Piped often doesn’t end up letting me play the video no matter how much I click on the play button, I can at least take solace in the fact I can copy the yt link and boot it in newpipe. At least we have options.
