why don't you buy youtube premium?
No need! I have ublock
>>106697569I thank all the paycucks and no-adblock cucks for their service, so that I can use youtube free and ad free.
>>106697593Brainrot isn't exactly free, dingus.
>>106697569I unironically pay for youtube premium
>>106697569If that would lead them to not collect my data constantly I wouldn't mind, sadly that isn't the case
>>106697569I don't watch on youtube.I check my subscribed channels list for new videos, and then download the videos to my PC before watching. Ublock handles any ads on the site.I don't watch on the phone becase that's a horrible experience.
>>106697569I do pay family subscription for me, my parents and my sister. While they use uBlock Origin on PC, they still have their phones with the official youtube app and using third party apps is a hassle because they need to update often and I'm not often around to do that.Same with Office/OneDrive, which was a hassle, even though now I am considering moving to Nextcloud because it is stable enough now.
>>106697569Why don't you go to reddit?
>>106697666Can't just use youtube on their phone browsers? The adblock works just fine.
if they gave you access to original untouched videos, I wouldeveryone knows they intentionally re-encode everything every couple of years, and now are introducing artifacts with AI ""enhancements"", even on paid/partnered/monetized channelsfor how cancerous nicovideo's "timeshift" model is, I'd get something from that
>>106697569>buy
>>106697569I do. I've been subbed for like almost a decade at this point probably. I cannot comprehend gen z's insufferable bitching about paying for youtube. It's like the only service I even pay for at this point and it's cheaper than anything I paid for in the past. Like, my cable bill (back when that was the only option) was like $80 for the bare minimum back in the day iirc. Not to mention you get youtube music for free which is fantastic. I would be paying for that individually if it wasn't included. Although I do miss google music and my original library being uploaded. I still have access to it but its crazy we can't still upload. I don't download music anymore because it's not 2008 or earlier but it's still nice for some things like my own recordings.
No thanks, I'll take my tiny little adblock win against the megagiant google.
Poor people ass thread.
>>106697727It's Dead Jim.
>>106697622Do you also unironically sucks dicks?
>>106697569>why don't you buy youtube premium?I would not mind paying to view content. Sadly even if I pay them i can't get privacy. Even if I pay for yt premium my browsing and viewing habbits will be mined, recorded and used to target ads to me and try to sell me shit. Even if it's stuff I need, they will use the data to do price fixing, and try to squeeze the most money as possible out of me.The fuck I am not going to pay for that..
>>106697569you don't need more.
>>106697908and? Why do people care so much about their browsing data? Are you really so susceptible to ads? Every time I see an ad I never think afterwards "welp better go buy that they convinced me!" Do you have no self control? Sounds like a personal problem.
>>106697622I've considered it because I use YouTube more than anything besides Torrents, but then they pulled all their anti-ublock shit so now I don't care and kind of hope the whole site collapses. I subbed to AMC Movie Pass instead.
>>106697727Damn, he doesn't know
>>106698099> but then they pulled all their anti-ublock shit so now I don't care and kind of hope the whole site collapsesYeah they should just let people steal from them. Zoomers are so stupid
I pay for youtube premium because I watch on PS5 a lot.If I watched only on my pc then I'd use ublock like everyone else.
>>106698166Cry harder faggot lol
>>106697869>>106698138You can still use it, you just have to open in an external player. It will be fixed shortly
>>106697569>>106697629>>106697636little beta bitches
>>106698166
>>106697569i am tempted but she might have more upgrade tattoos done so no
>>106698099I cut down on all my subscriptions a while back keeping only the essential, I kept youtube, my 3$ debrid subscription and 5$ vps. 15$ a month is nothing considering how much I use it also saves me a spotify subscription, even though ytm is a far shittier product.
>>106697636my bad, this guy isn't a little beta bitch
>>106698180...i'm not crying? Shit costs money to run. Pirating has always been a fight, getting upset at companies for fighting back is retarded. Like every time I see someone crying about Nintendo or anything else you just sound like spoiled children. I pirate when shit is complicated or fucked to buy/use (like streaming right now is fucked so a plex server makes sense) if the service works flawlessly and is appropriately priced I'm not a poor third worlder who needs to keep stealing.
>paying for YT>watching videos on a phoneKILL ALL ZOOMERS AND ALPHAS
>>106698278I pay for YT, Plex, VPN, and backblaze.
irresponsible dad the kid should already be on the YT family plan an irresponsible father lets his child use ad ridden youtube get a family plan and give that kid an actual $50 not $50 google money
>>106698352Forgot I pay for proton every 2 years as well for vpn, mail, pass, and drive.>PlexI swapped from plex to stremio when I found out about it, can recommend if you don't care about having all your media downloaded.
>>106697569Jewtubers censorship. I used to have it but the shadow banning got crazy so i stopped. Ironically it's what lead me hete and turned me into a racist
They charge too much, probably due to trying to bundle other shit with it. I would if it was $5 a month but for the current price I'm fine using firefox + UBO
why would I pay for something that's inferior to yt-dlp + ublock?
>>106698444My server has like 15 users it's not just a personal library.
Google/YT are going to hell fast, with every update, and people continue giving them money.
>>106697569>boughting YouTube Premium
>>106698692Beat me by 30 seconds
Are you dumb fucks allergic to money or revanced?
>>106698444Free proton vpn already gives you the best locations.
If you're poor just say so senpai
>>106698745I have proton unlimited so vpn gets bundled in, the unlimited hide-my-email from pass makes it worth it on its own.
>>106697569I do pay for premium. I pay for services I enjoy. Im not a thief like all those losers who can’t afford anything because they are living off their parents and spend all their money on drugs. I work 11 hours every day and I love it. I have so much money that I could wipe my ass all day with my money. You guys can too. Suck it up and stop being a loser
>>106698720>dumb fucksanswered your own question
>>106699080I bet every person in this thread bitching about paying for premium uses services like doordash and uber which makes me go pic rel. I use YT for a large portion of my enterainment every month both in video form and music form. The family plan is cheap and easy as well so my gf, sister, and dad can use it to for like $20 or whatever easy no brainer.
>>106697569I watch like 1-2 videos a day with my husband.Not really using it enough to justify that when most videos are 15-20 minutes long
>>106697569when the economy wasn't trash and youtube didn't have to play 300 commercials per video. love that memory
>>106697569That's cool for the kid but YouTube doesn't like my views so they'll never get my money. Maybe if they weren't so woke.
>>106699102Yeah its crazy cheap for what you get. Unlimited video content and unlimited music with a much bigger song library than spotify and apple music combined
>>106699143Yeah I forgot to mention that retards typically pay for spotify also lmao. Why pay for spotify when you could pay the same thing for YT music AND get YT ad free.
Because I use uBO and revanced on mobile
>>106697582fpbp/threadop is a faggotthis.only correct answer...
>>106697569Youtube Premium might be worth buying if it actually blocked all ads in Youtube videos but unfortunately it only blocks the ads served by Youtube itself, no matter how much money I shovel towards Google this video will still be brought to you by Raid Shadow Legends
>>106699472I mean, creators need to earn their money. It's not really a youtube problem.
>>106699162youtube music quality is beyond shit, I have tidal on top of it
>>106699702You don't need more than 320kbpst. audio engineer and music fag
I was seriously considering getting it, even though I have all ads blocked all the timethen I thought imagine something will happen to the credit card charges or some shit and they'll disable my google account and I'll lose all my emailI'd rather not risk it
>>106699799...what?
>>106699741Yeah I trust you, I just use it on TV when friends are over.I got a dolby atmos setup which ytm isn't really optimized for, I think it sounds pretty cool.Would be fun to blind test them to see if it's just placebo.
>>106697569because ublock still works
>>106699829The noticeable difference just isn't worth the hassle for casual consumption. iirc there's a blind test website out there you can try yourself on. It's obviously when you get to lower bitrates but 320 is much harder to decipher.
>>106697569I know if I buy it I’m stuck with it. It’s the principal. Would rather deal with the ads honestly.
>>106698692'em
>>106697569fuck off leech
>>106697569Because its a monthly subscription. $50 USD only pay ONE MONTH.Because the complete lack of filters in videos (no specific dates, no search by language, no regex)You cant block Shorts or entire channels of search.Premium lack of Dearrow and Sponsorblock
>>106697569It makes me sad that some lonely ten year old / mental retard is posting on Reddit because they have nobody else to talk to. Talk about screaming into the void. I have been doing it since I was a lonely homeschooled teenager. It has ruined my life.
>>106701825Pretty much this. If I'm gonna be having to get extensions to fix the dogshit service either way why pay a single cent? Might as well just use the extensions.
>>106697569They make my life worse and I'm supposed to REWARD them for that?!Fuck. That. Shit.
I am sick of how every "Youtuber" has the ping sound thing every 10 seconds, blasting 1000 Hz destroy your ears if you are wearing headphones.And why they follow the same templateEverybody talking to "black dildos" (Mics)
>>106697593Youtube should be paying me for using their service.
>>106697569I don't watch youtube and when I do I use yt-dlp + mpv
>>106697569YouTube Revanced exists. Paying for background playback is a rouse and YouTube should be ashamed of themselves for burning through people's battery life by forcing them to keep their screen on.
>>106702167What fucking ping sound, just stop watching trash.
>>106697622I do too anon. I mostly browse YouTube from my couch or bedroom tvs through my Nvidia shields. I can't get a YouTube adblocker without paying for it
One of my friends told me he has a raspberry pi hooked up to his modem which tells it to block all traffic from a list of known ad servers, so he doesn't even get in-app ads on his phone when he uses wi-fi.What a sigma.
>>106702670smarttube
>>106697569did he redeem?
>ublock on PC>revanced on phone (newpipe to watch AND download)>smartube on TVvoilá, free youtube everywherepaying is for normalfags
>>106697569>paying money so your child can brainrot more efficientlyWhat is wrong with these people?
>>106697569>what do you all think of thatI think it's rage bait. mhmmm.
There are people who just accept ads stealing their time.btw, use adnausium (io), custom ad blocker that doesn't block ads, but hides them from you and clicks on every single one, so all ad providers get paid, and sends useless white noise to the algorithm that's watching you.
>>106698240Little Indian street shitter.
why aren't you gatekeeping adblockers? let the paypigs pay
all the best music is on youtube! youtube will rule the world!
>>106697618NTA but I pretty much just watch math videos, DIY videos, and Martin Shkreli's live stream. I didn't use YouTube until MIT OpenCourseware put all their stuff there and that's what got me to use it, the player was better. (now it uses like 400mb of RAM per tab.)
>>106698444>Forgot I pay for protonimagine paying glowies to spy on you
>>106697569If I didn't root my Smart TV and install adblocked Youtube on it I might consider getting premiumBecause fuck it was annoying to have ads on thatIf uBlock on Firefox stops working I might consider it too
There's nothing on Youtube worth watching anyway
>>106699032>the unlimited hide-my-email from pass makes it worth it on its own.this is why I'll continue to pay for icloud
>>106702167Anon, that's a smoke alarm low battery ping, stop watching ghetto people
>>106704443Lmao. He was probably watching videos about seasoning.
I give up on revanced. YT music still stops at 59 seconds and occasionally stutters. I'll just go wage slave again to pay for a subscription.
>>106704335Not true
>>106697949it's not going to last much longer because google will require devs to register to sideload so they know who made revanced and will sue him.
>>106704847it's because people keep recommending 'oh i know an adblocker you should use this' instead of keeping their mouth shut
>>106698012>>106697732fuck off you fucking retarded gorilla nigger
>>106697593based
Why the FUCK would I ever for jewtube when I have both adblock and sponsorblock installed?It's all niggers and zoomers (redundant) anyway. And random assholes, usually niggers, making ugly faces at some bullshit I don't care about.Anyone who's ever had a social media account should just die.
>>106699702where is soundcloud?
In India it's like $10 for the year. Get a VPN. Works worldwide, can pay for a year upfront.
>>106707803Soundcloud is 128kbps, 256 with Go+, so even worse than youtube music.
>>106708519What platform uses what format?And is picrel true or is it marketing bullshit?
because I hate the antichrist
>>106707829lies
>>106697569the only reason I would pay for premium is to be able to listen to videos with my phone screen turned off. today I just download the remixes i want with yt-dlp and that works.now the real guy i was thinking about paying for is fucking twitch. I just can't get rid of their ads, they're too fucking cancerous to block. idk what they do avoid all fucking adblocks in the whole planet but it's working
>>106708821Hello newfriend, welcome to /g/!Both Brave and Firefox allow adblocking and listening to videos with the screen off on mobile. Brave has adblocking built-in, whereas Firefox lets you install addons. /g/ rightfully recommends uBlock Origin.For Twitch ads you can add something called TwitchAds Solutions to uBlock Origin. You can find it on GitHub. It's easy to install if you follow the instructions on there.
>>106698012Been infected by many ads in the past on reputable websites. Blocking them is more of a security measure than. Anything.
>>106708821newpipe?
>>106697569ublock
I use something called tubular, better than fedtube & no ads
>>106697569>paying for media
>>106702716I literally have everything to do this. Just haven't bothered since my normal computers and shit have adblock already but I guess it will be nice for anyone that visits.
>>106699702Anything beyond 256kbps lossy is pointless in playback (different story when recording/mixing) if you understand how digital audio (and digital-analog conversion in general, not just for audio) works. But idiots pay through their nose for audio bullshit like nothing else. You think dogmatism is only for religious or political zealots, but then you find out the common denominator is just the stupidity of the average person even in 2025 (or 20025 for that matter).
>>106709018i'm an iphone fag so ublock origin is not an option. i'm not sure if i can just open youtube on firefox focus browser, play a video and turn the screen off. maybe i can i have to try, but i'd be surprised if it worked.but thanks you're a real nigga for sharing the ublock thing, i just added the script for the low-res video while ads are running, i think they get the url for the low quality stream that goes on the top right and replace the ad container with that, that's neat if that's it
>>106698166Typical millennial consoomer faggot kill yourself
