Guys, have some sympathy for Google, they really need the money.
I’ve take to using yt-dlp to download things I want to watch to a Plex folder, just so I can watch on Apple TV without having to tolerate a barrage of cunty adverts.
It’s kind of a pain, but it does mean that I’m spending far less time idly scrolling through YouTube.
fuck, this will really hurt my revanced experience. a
oh wait no it won’t lol
For fucks sake google, give us an option JUST for YOUTUBE AD FREE…I would pay!
Not for YouTube music though. I don’t want that bundled shit
Uh, what?
Uh, youtube premium is ad free…
Im one of these legacy users from google music, and youtube hasnt shown me an ad in nearly a decade…
Obviously other than the baked in ad reads by the youtubers themselves
Yeah but premium has the other bundled shit I don’t want. Just give me an ad free option
You know they aren’t forcing you to use the bundled stuff, right?
That’s fine. Youtube is either free without ads, or non-existant. Hey, did you guys know adblock is a necessity in life? It’s true.
Hey did you know with certain add-ons, you don’t need YouTube premium? Just like back in the day when YouTube was just YouTube…
That’s fine and easy on desktop/web browser, but for mobile devices it is not quite as easy. You would either need to use a hacked version of the app or a third party app.
On mobile, I don’t use the app. I use safari + youtube.com with vinegar app and adguard.
No ads plus I get PIP. Quality is a hit or miss but idc about that.
With the change in political atmosphere I suspect they’re going to get a lot more leeway to do things we don’t care for. I wonder if they could lobby to make ad blocking illegal.
It seems like it’s already beginning. For one, Firefox is getting blocked more and more often as being “out of date” (it’s not) while a chromium-based browser is fine. My VPN keeps getting flagged as malicious (PIA). It’s getting really irritating.
I use PIA a lot, But yeah a lot of VPNs are getting flagged as malicious these days, to be fair there’s a lot of malicious people doing things on them.
Google purposely gives you an issue when you use their search engine with a VPN. when that happens I say fuck your capcha and use duck duck go
Long live the Duck
or SearX, which by proxy uses the duck and whoever else :P
Hopefully by then we have full mirrors of YT. Maybe PeerTube would be viable replacement
I wonder if someone can “buy” records of Trump’s internet habits
I’m fairly certain he just tell you if you got him doing his rambling thing.
Just have someone ask him what kind of ‘nasty things he thinks democrats use the internet for.’ He’ll start rattling off things that are way too specific and definitely projection.
I find it infuriating that the “free market” doesn’t let me bid on an empty ad slot on my own videos and instead makes me pay a flat rate monthly fee.
