Ads ads ads.

If you think about it if you use YouTube that much like I do then just get premium or deal with ads you have to choose

No thanks, never. It’s always been a free service and I am not about to pay for it now. Youtube is a shit platform. I had to install a browser extension just to be able to watch age restricted videos even though I’m way over the age of 18. And that’s because EU made it so YouTube had to require either your ID or your credit card info to verify your age, none of which Google has any business seeing. So fuck YouTube and fuck EU too. Never paying a cent to watch YouTube. Adblock is free.

You realize ads are the reason it's a free service right?

I didn’t mind the original little banner ads at the bottom of the video. They were not intrusive and were never a problem. The video ads are what I have a problem with. I’ve used adblocker from the day I installed Chrome.

What a shit attitude, ads are a fair trade off for a great service if you dont wanna pay. Made me cringe HARD reading this

They do not deserve my money for reasons I described in my initial comment. I will always use adblock everywhere that I and nothing is gonna change my view. I can’t stand ads, and if I can avoid them for free, well you bet I’ll do just that.

I dont use it that much, I go days without using YouTube. I only use it when I need something technical, like.. how to remove a transmission of an f250.. or idiots on cars when I want to burn time… replacing power steering on a 24 foot boat… stuff like that. I’m not spending a dime on google. Adblocker is a blessing.

That’s fair until in march when google changes how YouTube works and ad blockers won’t work anymore

that doesn't stop ad blocking, it just changes how it's done, besides you could always use a different browser?
