You people are arguing that YouTube should be hosting videos without asking for any compensation. You will continue blocking ads no matter how many of them there are.
I hope YouTube just completely paywalls itself so this whining can end already.
I wouldn’t mind paying for a service given I pay for my email provider when I can get gmail for free. Pretty ignorant to ignore the whole monopoly and say sToP uSiNg YoUtUbE tHeN. I will take what I need and I won’t give a penny or my data to those dicks. I also hope they paywall so there will be competitive services that I can happily pay for :)
because it’s insanely difficult to get along completely without YouTube. Or if you happen to have some kind of business it’s easier said than done to “just not optimize” for Google products or “just not use Google services” like having a Google Maps entry. On a side note, even getting a privacy focused smartphone without using Google services and products is near to impossible (e.g. GrapheneOS only works on Pixel phones…)
Then why are you using Google’s services
Are you familiar with the network effect?
I am. It’s just ironic to say “fuck Google” while continuing to depend on Google’s service

Don’t cut yourself with that edge!
inb4: “But YT operates at a loss and needs monies”. No. Just no. They deliberately worked at a loss to stifle and kill opposition.
