Am I officially old now?

When I click on a link for a news article I want a freaking article not just a video. I want a news story I can read. Watching youtube videos for entertainment is a different matter, I'm talking about trying to read the news. I don't like doing either one on my phone. I want a bigger screen and a regular keyboard and mouse. Or at least keyboard and touchpad, like on a laptop.

When it comes to accessing my bank or a social media site on my phone, I'd rather use the browser that came with the phone than an app. By the time I delete an app to make room for the one the site wants me to use and start to download it, I could have been finished on the website. In a few days I'm going to delete the new app to make room to reinstall the one I deleted to make room for it. It gets irritating.

Me too! I want the details/facts, not some dumb interview or sound bite.

I'm the same as you. I read very quickly and often scan for a fraction of a second before I decide whether the article is what I want. You can't do that with a video. It's much, much worse to me. Not to mention people's presentation skills are often not actually skills but just an imitation of how other people act on YouTube.
