YouTube is running an experiment asking some users to disable their ad blockers or pay for a premium subscription, or they will not be allowed to watch videos.
Call me lumberjack cause I wish a nigga wood pay for YouTube premium. With how many times YT tells me I’m not connected to the internet while my phone has a 3 bars of 5G (for whatever that’s worth) connection, hell naw I’m not paying for youtube premium. They move the goalpost way too often for what counts as “monetizable content” to the point that it’s neutering my favorite content creators to keep the lights on. TBH I’d rather pay Nebula
Sometimes 5G can actually give you a worse internet connection than good old 4G or 4G+. I recommend setting your phone not to connect to 5G—it can also save battery.
IMO right now 5G is still in its infancy and given it’s limitations regarding obstructions, I’m quite pessimistic about the technology.

I’m pessimistic about it too. Technerds keep saying it’s the future but it’s not any better than 4G
