  • I don’t know a single word in Chinese but I’m almost sure it will be easier than starting “from scratch”.
    Kanji are Chinese characters adapted to the Japanese language. Knowing Chinese meaning should make it easier to remember those as from what I heard 80% has the same meaning in both languages. Kanji also have two or more readings, onyomi and kunyomi where the former is based on original Chinese pronunciation.
    The writing should also be easier because if you can write Chinese that means that you will only have to learn hiragana and katakana.
    But why just not give it a try? You don’t have to commit to it right away. Even learning a little should bring you a new context and look to another culture. Those hours definitely won’t be wasted.






















  • Revanced is great because it lets you watch without ads WITH Google account. I know that if you’re focused on privacy the last thing you want is Google account but for me the benefit of YouTube algorithm suggesting me exactly what I want to watch is enough the reason to not use any platform/app that doesn’t support login. Of course they need to try more before I’ll pay for premium. For now if that dialog ever shows up to me I’m setting my UA to Android and see if that happens on mobile YouTube as well. Since they don’t care too much about that version of YouTube it’s possible that dialog will not show up. If that’s blocked too I’m installing waydroid and revanced on it. Also I hope that development of VueTube will speed up because currently it’s so slow I’m not sure if it will ever be finished and it would be great to have alternatives to revanced.
