    Ublock origin still going strong on chrome, I laughed when some days ago when the “please disable the ad block” on YouTube popped up.

    If youtube ever actually succeeds at permanently stopping ad blockers, then I’ll just stop using YouTube? Like what do they expect lmao

    if google was willing to ban all adblock users they wouldve already done so already, meaning we are too valuable for them still. of yeah they want to make you think you watching youtube videos without ads is worth 15$ per month but people in india pay like 3$ so the cost to them must be minim . i am sure as a first worlder my personal data to them is worth atleast 10$ per month so i am waiting for my paycheck google man watching me.

    I sometimes check my home profile on chrome for certain things when I’m at work, and when I load it, it doesn’t include the ublock I have on the work profile.

    I visit some of the same sites on both and man, I couldn’t imagine the internet as it is without ublock. Seriously, ads are insane.

    a few months ago: Youtube launches videos quickly

    a few days ago: Youtube pausing a few seconds before launching videos, with popup “Experiencing interruptions? Find out why”

    “Why? oh, maybe turn off your popup blockers”

    nah, eat a bag of d1cks

    “Just watch a little ad, as a treat.”

    Again, I remind us all that the AdBlock war isn’t a war we actually want to win.

    i use adblockers cuz i am not putting up with that crap

    This is a genuine question. As someone who has Ublock but not specifically for YouTube. Why do people hate the ads there? Is it because they are shown to frequently or intrusive?

  11. If it were just an ad at the beginning of videos I wouldn’t care. But when you get videos with multiple ads that are sprinkled throughout? I’ll take the 5 second black screen before the video loads to not see ads.

    google starts a war with Adblocker
    10 years later “we swear we aren’t throttling Gecko browser users….. try disabling your extensions that we can only detect you have, but not what they are!”

    The content on YouTube is just not good enough to justify the amount of ads, much less a paid subscription. I’m not paying as much as a subscription to a service that provides high quality narrative productions as well as highly produced documentaries for ad free unboxing videos and car reviews. And like yeah there are some pretty good YouTubers I like watching but like most of them seem to be getting most of their money through sponsorships and off-site subscriptions anyways? Like I don’t feel bad about not paying YouTube.

  14. for the first time ever I got an ad with ublock origin on chrome. I may need to swap to firefox

  15. The “experiencing delays” shit is getting kinda annoying for sure, but I’m sure ublock will have it fixed soon enough. YouTube thinks they’re gonna win this but they won’t.

    I just made the swap a couple days ago. It feels good. I will cease watching youtube before I watch another ad
