> So you just follow random links people send you? That seems like a horrible waste of your most precious commodity.

See my point about social objects.

> YouTube offers a way to pay for an ad free experience. Are you a paying member?

They don't offer it in my country, so no. But I do am a paying subscriber of Netflix, Spotify and Amazon Prime Video, FWIW.

So you're willing to trade your time for feeling connected?

That's a shame. They offer Prime video in Poland? I don't even think we get it in Australia :/

Well, yes - that's life, basically :). Writing a comment here is also me trading time for feeling connected ;).

I'm surprised, I thought Australia is usually right after US in such things. As for Poland, they've started offering it something like a week ago. I signed up immediately after I learned about it, mostly because I wanted to watch "The Man in the High Castle".

Sadly not, Australia is actually usually pretty far behind. Luckily being Canadian and having lived in the US I have access but it's a pain.
