Original title: “Misunderstanding Your Job Description - Delivery” by Viva La Dirt League

Delivery man Byron learns some really important information about his job… that he probably should have learnt 6 years ago…

For those who don’t know the show: It’s important to understand that Byron is a very, very dedicated employee, who accepts any challenge, and takes great pride in his work. His colleagues sometimes don’t remember him after working with him for years.

    Oh, sorry! In the last 30 or so posts, I always included both. This time, for some reason, I thought no one would care. Thanks for your feedback, I’ll make sure to include both in the future.

      IMHO video links should always be YouTube first, then third party mirror second, in the body or comments. Here are the reasons:

      1. YouTube is the primary source. Always prioritize the primary source when you’re sourcing.
      2. Think of the URL being shared as the primary key to a database record. Lemmy can use it to detect dupes. With YouTube URL there’s like 3 forms, discounting timestamps. With piped links the possibility expanded to 3+(number of piped instances on the web). This massively increases the likelihood of accidental reposts.
      3. Give people a choice of whether they want to watch on the original site, or on a piped instance of their own choosing. When you link to a piped instance link you rob people of that choice.
      4. A piped instance can choke or go offline at any time. YouTube is close to 100% uptime.
      5. Userscript wise, it’s trivial to map YouTube URLs to a user’s piped instance of choice, but it’s so much more tedious to detect and map every single piped instance.
