why are youtube ads still bypassable?

why don’t they just do wait-til-ad-runs-out-then-serve-video serverside?
>>
>>106702582
they figure it doesn't matter because advertisers are so fucking dumb that they would buy ads even if everyone blocked them

I believe less than 10% of users have ad blockers, so investing too much money on bypassing them doesnt make financial sense as of yet

I'm convinced this graph is marketing by dating apps. Literally no one I know has found their partner online. And all my female friends and acquaintances make fun of "losers that need an app to get laid".

Personally every relationship I've ever had was through mutual friends, college and work.

The only person I know that even uses dating apps in 2025 is the weird antisocial Indian dude at work that is always silent and leering at female colleagues.

The user base for dating apps are people who use it for amusement rather than to find genuine connections. Your female friends are being facetious, as they are very likely to scroll through tinder for attention farming or to laugh at said losers. One's lonely, two's company. The apps wouldn't exist without females using it in droves

Do you have any idea how expensive video encoding is? Go get ffmpeg and try setting up your idea.

Combined with the fact that pissing off adblock users would cause us to just make their own video hosting site and implementing this is *way* more expensive than just leaving us alone.
>>
>>106703685
Bots, prostitutes, single mothers and legit low value loser women are the only female users of dating apps in 2025. The novelty has expired for almost a decade now for the average Stacy.
>>
>>106703685
>The apps wouldn't exist without females using it in droves
there is an equilibrium between too few females causing the app simply ceasing to function, and too many using it and causing the females not to feel "special". women don't sleep around for coom hormones, they sleep around for ego boosts.
attention ("validation" to use their retarded langauge) is to shallow females as sex is to shallow men.
the ideal dating app demographic is like 30% insecure whores and 70% mindless coomers. anyone trying to establish a meaningful relationship = lost profit.
>>
baked in ads would be very expensive to youtube in terms of it limiting the extensive targeting options they have right now of demographics, each needing specific ads, but I'm sure they'll soon offer for ad partners to pay a fuck ton to have generalist ads baked in for some period of time on likely popular content.
>>
>>106703780
what i meant is average video ad is at least 10 seconds, so why not hardcode 10 seconds wait serverside before serving content and so on
>>
>>106702582
Because they don't want to annoy people.
They already have the tech for this, it's called SABR:

they are still bypassable. people use sponsorblock for this reason and autists provide the timestamps for skipping
>>106704195
elaborate what this is
>>
>>106704213
>elaborate what this is
YouTube's custom server side video streaming protocol. It's adaptive (not fixed quality/resolution) and has logic built-in to it like "The player must wait N seconds before it can start playing", etc.

From the Pull Request: >>106704206
>Due to server-side ad enforcement, the downloader may need to wait an amount of time specified by the server before receiving video data. There is a full bypass for this however it is not a long term solution, so I have not included it in this PR as we need to test the wait logic.

Am I the only one who got account-walled since last week? I can't view any video because it's asking me to sign in. I'm guessing they're completely blocking adblocking next.

>>106702677
I've seen a lot of it, some people are just more afraid of loneliness than death itself. They would rather be miserable and unhappy on a daily basis than have to contend with their own personal thoughts and life. Relationships in current decade are basically just escapism for a lot of men and that's why women are the way they are now, because even that unemployed diabetic HIV positive fat cunt with a black baby has options. And quite a lot of them too

Men are honestly pathetic

How is Google making any money when every ad I get is for fake AI video games and porn chat bots? Are these the same advertisers who get worried about curse words and firearms and such? The whole thing doesn't make any sense to me.

The graphs are misleading as shit because meeting ppl online through friends is counted as online and they only count the "through friend" as 100% in person.
>>
>>106708220
i've matched like three pairs of friends, one pair already got married, and one of my best friends is dating one of my younger sisters right now
not a single one has ever in the history of the world introduced me to a single girl, not even by proxy, not even been able to date somebody that a friend knew and i met through them at a party or whatever
not even online
man my friends are mad gay
>>
>>106707788
People pay for those ad impressions. Yes, somebody producing that garbage is paying to push it on eyeballs and no, they probably don't care about naughty words and firearms. That's why you see ads for AI slop and not some major brand that doesn't want to be seen.

>Everybody needs co.promise unless you wanna die alone.
If you're a 9/10 yourself, it's easy to get a 7/10.

>>106707788
you are the lowest tier on the totem pole just so you know, google cannot make good money off of you, because only the trashy ads like that are interested in targeting you. a boomer with 40 years of savings, different story.
