Frustrated YouTube viewers seek explanation for hour-long unskippable ads (Update: Statement)
-
Haven't seen these but my solution would be just don't watch the video. These ads may be unskippable but they aren't un-watch-something-else-able.

I either watch YouTube without ads or don't watch at all. We need a new platform for videos.

Not a fediverse thing, but I pay $5 a month for nebula. I think it’s worth it to support creators. And I believe the whole “if you’re not paying for something you’re the product”. Though you can still be the product even if you do pay.

Youtube is like that bully that asks for your lunch money and when you say no, they slam you into a locker.
When you say no again, they start hitting you until you finally give that lunch money.
Once you do, they will show you the others are being abused harder when they demand more money from you.
I would love to contribute to the end of youtube.
To me, the value of youtube and it's music is far below the €18 it costs to get me and my wife ad free. My internet costs roughly that and offers a lot of possibilites, so why should i pay double for a service that supplies about 1 millionth of what the internet itself has to offer, especially considering my wage has barely changed while i watch my rent and groceries triple in cost.
Y'all need to realize there is an end to my money, you can't keep taking.

Youtube is like that bully
Except no one is forcing you to face that bully.
You can simply stay away. -
It has nothing to do with the expense and everything to do with the fact that most people do not enjoy reading (any more, at least).

If you like that sort of thing you'll like IHYLS

I guess I'll just appreciate the fact that my books don't have ads.
-
It's either this or cable, cable sucks.
So i'd rather adblock the hell out of them.

I read a lot of books on Kindle. It's just a matter of time ...
-
The base Kindle already has ads on the lock screen...
-
I use the Android app, so at least I don't have to endure that.
