What do you feel about giving your money to a company that truly doesn’t deserve it and can fuck up its customers whenever they can? Even more when you can get YouTube Premium features easily for free with a proper adblocker on PC (I mean, it is possible yet), Revanced on an Android phone, and Smart Tube Next on an Android TV setup box or capable TV (just to name a few options, especially of my setup).
I just hate the idea of paying so much not because great features but Google having beaten me into submission by taking away free features and introducing shitty stuff to force me to pay.
To be fair I never felt like Google beat me into submission. I pay for it because I consume so many hours of video that subscribing makes sense and gives some small amount to the creators I watch. That amount was zero before I subscribed, since I was blocking advertisements.
That said I do see the frustration. I don’t think they’ve gone about it in a great way.
I’ve got it and like it AMA
No one cares
That’s a weird question!
No one cares that you don’t care
Fuckin speak for yourself I care that he doesn’t care.

I give a negative number of fucks, but that underflowed so now i give

If I have no way to remove ads I would block them. If payment doesn’t remove ads, I’ll unsubscribe and block them.
Do you think everyone not paying is poor or greedy or entitled?
No.
Do you think that using adblocker is theft and on the same level as stealing a car?
(Just trying to make sure you’re not a linus in disguise)
Obviously it’s not like stealing a car and I’m pretty sure that’s a straw man, he just said it’s piracy, which I’d argue it is.
It’s like taking the train without paying, you aren’t inherently hurting anyone, but if no one pays/watches ads it’s not sustainable.
I don’t. I do block adverts when I cannot pay to remove them.
