I do wish people wouldn’t treat a good university performance as essential to their self worth though

Honestly never. The problem is that if you have other stuff in your life that takes priority, like a family, you might not pull your weight OR you might not understand how to manage time. This can happen to people of any ages; kids with family issues or disruption in their home life see a dip in school performance, for instance.

Totally. And given the way that YouTube is basically collapsing, handing itself over to unbridled AI sloppage, I’d also like to see an alternative to YouTube (like peertube) take over.
