Terminal Tilt is exactly 58 subscribers away from the 1K milestone and monetization.

In case you are new to my channel, welcome! As a disabled queer creator, I know how often our voices are drowned out by corporate "ai" sludge. Terminal Tilt is a space where I can speak authentically, fight for digital sovereignty, and show that there is a place for us in the technical world.

I started it because I like to watch YouTube and I often search for Linux videos. I find it infuriating that 90% of the videos have "ai" generated voices, graphics, and scripts. I want to learn new things, not have unoriginal ideas regurgitated to me by bots. Terminal Tilt is a strictly Non-AI   channel focused on ethical computing, promoting #FOSS, and providing a direct alternative to the Big Tech surveillance machine. I respect your time and your sovereignty. Lets build a community together!

If you believe in a web where the user is in control and their privacy respected, and our technology does not have to destroy the planet, help me cross the finish line today.

I have some great stuff in the pipeline, such as reviews for security hardware, quick looks and installations of GNU/Linux distributions   , and discussions on the state of computing.

I am also improving quickly. Every video has been a learning experience and I am very open to constructive criticism.

My newest video from earlier today: 5 Extensions for Real Digital Independence https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fA9FjlZMJBQ

My most popular video (90k+ views): The Windows Exodus Has Begun https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLzdTgCXyRU

I also post videos to PeerTube here: https://gnulinux.tube/c/terminaltilt/videos

Every boost helps us show that independent, human created tech content has a place in 2026.

I've looked into alternative ways to sub youtube videos, and NekoCap seems to be the best one so far.

It's open source, no AI stuff or paywalls, supports a bunch of other video sites, and it supports complex subs so you can use different fonts, do text placement, all that cool stuff. They have their own subs editor, but I have never used it, just make my subs on AegisSub and upload them there.

You do need to have a google account to upload subs there, which is eh, but you get your own little page with all the videos you subbed and you can put a donation link there which is nice.

It links to the original youtube videos, so you can share them from the NekoCap website or just use their web extension to watch straight from YouTube, no account needed.

Anyway, I think it's neat, been using it a decent amount, I like it.
Here's a link to it: https://nekocap.com/
