Why don't you just buy Premium? Are you poor?

>giving google money on purpose
lmao do normies actually do this?
my boomer mom used to pay for premium to skip ads and i just installed an adblocker for her

I found the solution to this
I just quit watching youtube videos

>>106990775
i wish there was a real alternative to youtube but there just isn't and there never will be since youtube is too big now

>>106990777
>>i wish there was a real alternative to youtube but there just isn't and there never will be since youtube is too big now
The alternative is "don't watch videos". It's like when you tell someone that you're a cord-cutter who cancelled your cable TV subscription and they assume you signed up for a dozen streaming services instead. Video """content""" isn't essential, it's optional. You don't have to. You can just... not watch that slop.

>>106990799
well i happen to like watching videos. fuck off anon you're not special for pretending to not use youtube

>>106990809
I'm not pretending, it's blocked at the router.
You can like lots of things that are bad for you and choose not to do them. TV and youtube are just one among many.

>>106990763
Yes saar I love the youtube premium.

>>106990826
move on anon, i don't give a shit

>>106990834
move on from youtube.

>>106990840
i will when an alternative comes around that has the content i want to see

>>106990850
you mean the content they want you to see?

>>106990859
nope, the content i want to see. i don't watch algorithm based recommendations

>>106990763
I have a decent amount of money because I don't pay for nonsense.

>>106990867
better yet spend money on things that actually pay you back. Any money I'd spend on youtube will just go to the ublock dev or to the blocktube devs.

>>106990863
The societal algorithm, that google fully backs and helps to shape, recommends you spend your time watching videos. And you say "Yes, I will!" and sit there doing it. Then all the shil-er-"content creators" can tell you about all the new products you should buy.

>>106990889
damn, you live like that? pathetic

>>106990709
uBlock blocks this and I never perceived any delays.

>>106990763
I hate Google. They owe me backported bug fixes on Android 10.

>>106990980
how? i use ublock and this shows up every video

>>106991031
I dunno, it just werks. Linux, maybe?

>>106991081
why the fuck would anyone use linux?

>>106990709
I think it's less than 1% of users blocking ads, just in general. They're not losing any sleep over this.

>>106991094
absolutely insane to me that normies use the internet with no adblockers

>>106990763
I would buy premium if youtube wasn't run by libtards and jeets who censor anything they don't like

>>106991031
You using firefox? Set your user agent to chrome.

Alternatively, use computer made in the last decade.

>>106991031
It only shows up if you get open a video in a new tab and immediately click on it or if you get redirected to a video from a search engine or another site. I have no problems opening videos in the same tab or on a playlist for example. I only notice the delay like once a day when i start watching a video i had paused for like half a day when it has to reload. Only takes a few seconds anyway.

>>106991081
I get that on linux too. Maybe because I use firefox, I dunno. I think it happens when the video tries to display ads.

>>106990763
>pay for an objectively inferior experience
no

yes they do really think. the algorithm knows the kind of person that will fold and thats who they target. if ad block stops working for you, you have been deemed an easy target and they are right.

>>106990763
I won't hand over my doxx to jewgle for a shitty service, they'll have to acquire it through illicit means.

there is a better way to deal with you tube ads

>>106990777
firefox -no-remote

>>106990709
Is that what that's about? I've never clicked it because I just assumed it was my shitty internet (which is indeed shitty and constantly going out for a second or too, thanks comcast u fucking worthless faggots).
