lol, hilarious, reader mode it is then
My wife turned off her adblocker so she could watch some videos.
Within 20 minutes I heard tobacco ads, gambling ads, alcohol ads, and some ads that sounded like outright scams.
It’s a moral imperative to use an adblocker at this point.
i miss when people who made websites genuinely wanted what’s best for their users
Yeah, geocities was great!
YTMNDs are still the pinnacle of web design, change my mind
What does YTMND mean?
Youtube has lost me as a user. I’m totally fed up with being force fed garbage ads all the time when I’m just trying to click on something informative. Forget it. I can get my info elsewhere and i do not need Youtube at all. One of the biggest joys of death is going to be never ever having to see another god damned “Liberty Mutual” or “Verizon” ad again in all eternity. That’s one thing I’m truly looking forward to!!!
Go out and make your own video storage and streaming service then.

And this is why we continue to use ad blockers. The entire internet is worse without them.
Something like less than 5% of users use adblockers - and yet that’s still too many for youtube. They just can’t have a 95% revenue stream, they have to ruin what little tech credibility they had left and ruin it for that tiny 5%. I hope this only encourages more robust ad blockers.
Right! Google acting like they are losing billions a month due to adblockers when in reality it’s like .2% of their total profits and they STILL foaming at the mouth.
