Reply to comment by Notnowcmg in What's up with spoiler culture?? by LoCaL_dRuNkArD

If you think that to avoid spoilers you have to get out of yt, at that point you should just not use an internet connection, because its not just YT. Its all social media. What I wanted to say is basically that surely it isn't that hard to say "spoilers btw," because just as you also said, new people are constantly playing things and I don't think it's too much work to warn people of spoilers. But im just a fool who doesnt take responsibility I guess. Curse me for suggesting people be just a weensy teensy bit more thoughtful of others. I mean this whole post got even downvoted.

Aside from when someone posted a spoiler on a thread about football about a game I was playing I’ve managed to avoid spoilers for both tv shows and games. In my first comment I mentioned avoiding both social media and YouTube as I would personally avoid both if actively trying to avoid spoilers for something - you however have stated on two separate occasions that YouTube has spoiled things for you both in your original post and about red dead 2. It seems your problem is predominantly YouTube and actually staying off it or not using it so much might actually be beneficial in your case?

It's because I really only use YT. But that doesn't mean that other social medias would be different. They wouldn't. It's the same people there aswell.

It is different though lmao. In the past year I finally played Skyrim, Fallout 4, Fallout NV, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands, as well as watched Game of Thrones as well as Prison Break. And guess what, I had never been spoiled about anything in these games/tv shows. It’s on you to avoid spoilers, if you expect the world to cater to your needs, then you got a lot of growing up to do bud

Omg, you people are a hivemind but you don't listen. Im tired of saying the same thing on every comment. And dont say "Bud", its extremely cringe worthy.

I don't know which ones are the best nowadays, but there are browser extensions that will automatically block youtube videos with certain keywords. I used it a few times in the past right before game releases. Do some research.
