TL;DR

MKBHD is shutting down the Panels app at the end of this month, citing issues with finding the right development team fit.

You can no longer buy collections, and you must download existing wallpapers before the app is removed.

Users will receive automatic pro-rated refunds for active subscriptions, and the app code is promised to be open-sourced after shutdown.

In a sponsored shill video that also got him roasted. He must have been in 96mph hurry to destroy his youtube career.

I unsubscribed. But he gained new subscribers. Nobody else cared.

I wish YouTube had the block channels option.

[–] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 days ago

I recommend the BlockTube extension if your browser supports it.

In addition to the other commenter mentioning "Do Not Recommend", there is an extension called BlockTube that is pretty handy.

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It does?
3 dots -> Do not recommend this channel.

[–] Sunshine@piefed.ca 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That option doesn’t seem as strong as a block but it’s a start.

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You mean by block not even able to open the video?
Yeah I'm not aware of any way to do that

[–] Sunshine@piefed.ca 1 points 2 days ago

Yes in that you do not see the channel at all.

Wow, I totally did not know about this.

I don't watch him anyways so it'll just stay that way.
