No that's not what I meant

You post this link:

https://odysee.com/%24/embed/%40fireship%3A6%2Fpaying-for-software-is-stupid%E2%80%A6-10-free%3A5

When I would have preferred this link:

https://odysee.com/@fireship:6/paying-for-software-is-stupid%E2%80%A6-10-free:5

You see the difference?

Your link only lets me watch the video, is called the embed link (it says 'embed' in it)

My link takes me to the webpage for the video so I can read the description, see the uploader, etc and of course watch the video

All this is not possible with your link, because I can't get to the webpage through your link

I literally have to search for 'odysee.com paying for software is stupid' to try to find the video on my own. To even find out what to search I have to decipher the URL. It's a lot of hassle when you could just post the regular URL to the video.

I'm not criticizing you, I'm just curious if it's on purpose and why

Why post the embed link? It makes it extra work to find the actual videos page, the uploader, and see anything about it except the video itself

Is there some benefits I'm not aware of to using the embed link version?

I rarely watch a video without at least seeing who the uploader is, usually reading the description too, but maybe that's just me...

It's not cool that these people ambush us in public places

But also there's a better way to handle it IMO, saying I'm not interested and repeating it no matter what they say shuts them down before they can even get going

You saying 'I don't believe' is an in for them, an opening to engage with you, might even give them hope that they could convert you or whatever

If you say you don't care what they're pushing, regardless of the content, they have no angle of approach. The best they can do is something like 'your not interested in being saved?' and you don't give a fuck and repeat I'm not interested

'what if I just give you this flyer?'

I'm not interested

'Why don't you care about God?'

I'm not interested

It's like giving a sales pitch to a wall. They realize the futility as quickly as they can and move on.

At least that's how I handle it

Yes exactly:

the cellulose polymers in these systems are plant-derived, biocompatible, and biodegradable
