The internet is falling apart
The internet is dead. Long live the internet!
Nothing lasts forever. YouTube will eventually give way for something else.
I literally haven't been impacted by this at all. Are they just going after one particular ad blocker?
It seems like they're either rolling this out slowly, or this is just a small-scale test only affecting a small percentage of the user base.
Could be AB testing I suppose.
I swear, it's like all large tech companies are trying to out stupid each other right now.
Still no ads, adblocker works in youtube opened in firefox
Good luck with that.
I gotta admit I pay for premium. Like, I pay for all these different services like Netflix, hbo, prime, Spotify etc, but the one I use the most (by a lot!) is YouTube. I bought it most of all to not have ads on my iPhone. Now the creators gets payed, I never see ads anywhere, all is good.
I wouldn't mind paying for it either, but it's not available in my country. So, until it is, uBlock all the way.
For anyone considering it, I highly recommend YouTube Premium. Comes with YouTube Music as well, which is a perfectly fine replacement for Spotify.
I'll stick to ad blockers and not give the megacorp any money. thanks for the rec though
