At what point did it become acceptable to just post a YouTube link with an inflammatory comment? I'm all for inflammatory threads, but I can recall a time when you had to actually do a little work. If you wanted to rile up the board you'd need to transcribe the important parts of the video, or convert them to a gif/webm with subtitles. Most of the time you'd also have to post a few "bait" responses as well. A picture of a cute woman couldn't hurt.
I don't come to 4chan to use YouTube/Reddit/Facebook. I already feel like I'm using these services when I talk to people IRL. There is currently an alarming centralization of the internet. It has been happening for a long time, but it's getting to the point where I can't escape it. News articles linking to Facebook videos I can't watch without an account. Fake advertising fads spreading like wildfire. This is to be expected from the other services but not here. In five years 4chan will be bleating about the same stupid baby Yoda bullshit everyone else does. That one cute girl who was a meme awhile back (the "hit the dab" one) was clearly viral marketing for tick tock (Chineese dataset collection software for training AI) and no one seems to care.
