YouTube is WHY I have adblockers to this day. I was Ok with the ads at the beginning and end. When they started cramming 2-3 ads in the middle of a 10 minute video, that’s when I started looking for a solution.
Their greed is why they make $0 from me many years later.
I think it’s rich they aren’t happy with people using them when they’re the ones that made the standard viewing experience awful in the first place.
i remember when ads started rolling out when I was much younger and i was like this is odd but ok then they became longer than skippable then an ad played in the middle of my video and i was like must be a glitch haha.
i cannot even look at youtube without an ad blocker i feel like 13 viruses would be downloaded at a glance
What sucks is that my kitten sleeps on my desk and every single time one of their ear-blasting ads comes on he flicks his ears in discomfort. It’s not even that the ads themselves are loud (they are, very very loud) it’s that every syllable and sound effect has the Attack turned up to 11. Sometimes i’ll be in the other room it will sneak an ad on me and all i’ll hear is TKnn TKmm TKTKmm TKTKTKmm mm TKTK mm mm

Standup comedy is the most painful on YouTube. Ads just get thrown in the middle of everything.
