I wouldn't mind so much if the ads were like they used to be i.e. just played at specific times in the video or just played at the start. They're so fucking obnoxious the way they are now though. "Wanna skip ahead? Fuck you, you're getting another ad. Oh you meant to go a bit further in the video? Well here's another one, cunt!"

Fucking kikes.

These dumb fucks helm one of the biggest corporations in all of human history with literally unfathomable wealth and resources at their fingertips, and they STILL can't figure out how to make THE premier video hosting platform self-sustaining, let alone profitable.
I thought that Susan jew was bad but then the street shitter took over and it's getting exponentially gayer. ABP, uBlock, Ad Nauseum, and now Brave have fallen to this stupid ad dogshit. They somehow think this blitz will get everyone happily watching ads without question, and don't see how it just drives more and more people from the platform.

- Eating half of creators' superchat and ad money
- Rigging the algorithm to push views toward the most manufactured MrBeast-esque soyslop content
- Turning non-child content into "YouTube Kids" videos so the dipshit advertisers will be more willing to run their bullshit
- Strangling content more and more to be "ad friendly" so you can't even say "fuck" or "shit" in videos if you want a prayer at making money off them. You can't even show blood in movie or video game clips now without being demonetized.
- Removing dislikes because no one bought the zog narrative during the Rittenhouse trial
- Adpocalypse
- YouTube Rewind
- Not allowing you to make Subscriptions your home page and forcing dogshit videos with 5 views into your recommendeds
- Bombarding your home page with "lift up nigger/faggot/pygmy voices" propaganda every month
- Not even remotely caring to look into DMCA takedowns and militantly reinforcing the absolutely retarded/vexatious applications of American copyright law

Man I wish it was more logistically viable for another site to compete with this. I'm so tired of these people being paid billions of dollars just to make worse decisions than a 5 year old. Somehow garbage like Odysee and Rumble still manages to be worse.
Get off chromium browsers and use adblock origin. Issue solved
As far as content on YouTube goes, well I can't help you there

I use Revanced for mobile and it works great. Louis Rossman released this recently and it looks really promising since Odysee, Rumble, etc can't build an app or website worth a shit.

I use Brave as my browser and it’s ad blocker block pretty good.

You still accumulating BAT? I've been using Brave for years and it used to be straightforward: you use the internet, a few BAT wind up in your account at the end of the month. After like a year and a half, about a year and a half ago, I cashed out my BAT for about $180. Since then it's been constant "glitches." For awhile I'd email them and they'd fix it but lately their customer service has gone down the shitter. The BAT ain't coming, they won't connect wallets, etc.

Just update your filter lists. I added a bunch on Wednesday, can't tell you which one exactly did the trick.

To be fair, within the past few months/weeks, all the sites have been figuring out how to kill off the adblocker. Especially the pornography websites.
And it only took them a decade to do so. Good luck doing the same to all those browsers with built-in adblockers or shit like Vanced.

Not to mention, the search function is utterly pointless now.
It's insufferable how much goddamn nonsense clutters your feed when you're looking for something specific.

Or the same videos keep showing up over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and


Also the motherfucker uses a ton of memory now. Something that worked great TWENTY YEARS AGO...they just can't.....we don't know.....uh uh...it's better???

Yeah, fuck you Uncle Sam.

Unfortunately Google can just update their own detection key and undo the filter changes. So this is going to be a cat and mouse game that probably the ad blocking groups will not be able to ever win. Especially when MV3 rolls out and we really start to lose control over our browsers.

I’ve only been on it for a little over a year but I forgot that you could earn money from using it. I need to look into that. I have noticed that it is shitty as a search engine and some links just won’t work with it. I mainly like it because the ad blocker works well. I spend most of my time on YouTube and I haven’t seen an ad since I started using it

I still have ABP and Ublock even though it has it's own adblocker. Some sites you just have to turn off the adblocker(lion icon) and reload the page and it'll work.

I heard it pays a fraction of what it used to. I was looking into signing up, but they wanted me to pair some crypto service that asked for my SSN so they can fuck off.

Agree with the rest of the post, but I thought you were gonna talk about the nature of ads themselves for a sec. You know things have gotten really gay and stupid when I look back with stockholm syndrome for old ads.
Ads on TV used to be a lot more direct: here's our product, it does this cool stuff, here's a hot woman drinking it, buy it. At some point in the 2010s, ads really doubled down on their subtle manipulation, "relatability," shoehorned shitskins, and cancerous Office humor. They realized just how much millennials identify with brands and play far more into the "culture" angle of their shitty wares now. Every ad I'm forced to see or hear now has the rapport of a homeless man grinding his erection against you on the subway. Garbage media has done more to get me outside than self-discipline ever has.

Obnoxious advertising is a good reminder that you're watching nothing worthwhile. I'm not bothering to find a work around to the ads this time. Yesterday I got a Gillette razor ad. I guess their billion dollar advanced algorithm detected I am a male (troubling assumption of my gender identity). I switched it all off. I don't even remember what I was watching.

If admin introduces ads, I might (eventually) go outside and touch a woman.
