Why use the app, when you can use the web interface on any browser? https://www.xvideos.com/

[–] [email protected] 88 points 1 month ago

Hey now, how dare you compare that disgusting filth to pornography!

[–] [email protected] 34 points 1 month ago

Well for one because my work is blocking your link. I've requested they remove it from the block list though. I'm not in fucking Brazil!

I'm a bit surprised Xvideos is still viewable in "Tread on me, daddy!" states like Texas. (Maybe Paxton really thought it was Elen's homemade porn site? Just kidding, it's Czech owned, they can just ignore his deranged lawsuits. And now the most visited porn site in the world. Republicans are killing American jobs, confirmed.)

There's a ridiculous amount of porn sites out there. Banning the big daddy Pornhub is just going to drive people to those who are generally less moderated, or teach them how to bypass such blocks - which maybe teaches some folks some media competency again.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Pornhub wasn't banned from Texas; it banned states like Texas, Florida, and Kentucky from access because of their ridiculous "must put self on government list to see porn" laws.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago

Same difference. There's bans or talks about bans like this in other countries too, for the same reasons basically.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No no, that has considerably less offensive content.

Just don't use that cancerous platform.

[–] [email protected] 42 points 1 month ago (1 children)

My condolences to the people who have to install it to write an article about it.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

At least they get a chance to leave a 1 star review on their way out.

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Out now? Then what's this XVideos app on my TV?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago

It's porn. In fact, it's porn all the way down.

Shocked I tell you. I am shocked.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Let me guess, the content is: blatant nazi propaganda, shilling of shitcoins, and advertising for the stupidest implementation of the most dystopian technology you can think of.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago

Don’t forget the ruzzian psy ops

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Out of curiosity, what's in that app? Like videos and shit? Or just normal shitter?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Of what? Like their members posted videos? I genuinely don't know, as I don't have shitter

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Basically a lot of shows by former Fox News hosts and other far right vodcasters who are too extreme to be promoted on more mainstream platforms.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ok, so all the crazy outcasts whose garbage no one wants to hear/see? Got it. Good thing I don't have shitter, shit like this bothers me for real. Lol

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Unfortunately a bunch of people do want to see that shit.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Good for them. Let them soak their brains with it. Lol

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Fascist/right-wing bullshit. You’re not missing out on anything.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

So, Alex Jones and his likes? 😂

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago

Strange, I didn’t even have to try it out to know that it’s garbage.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

isn't it basically the old twitter app with less content people would actually want to watch and more rubbish partisan political content?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

There was a Twitter app for Android TV?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

apple tv and android; the android one launched in 2016ish

Can't wait to not use this

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It’s good to see both sides of the cake. Personally I like to peep both X and mastodon . The contrasts tells me were we are at.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

both sides of the cake

This two sided cake analogy is a new one for me.
