@Patrick-857 People don’t appreciate how many skilled developers are out there who also get sick of corpo nonsense, it really doesn’t take that many people finally being fed up enough to fix a problem created by corpos that no one else has fixed yet

@Abu_Shawarib When I watch on my phone, I literally put it on mute and go get some water or whatever when the ads come on. It used to be that I would just let ads play most of the time, but half the damn time I spend on YouTube is seeing ads now it’s ridiculous

The ads still play, they just don’t get paid for it. I get hosting servers costs money, but I don’t want to support censorship so 🤷‍♂️

Instead of moving towards a more self sustaining model that is viewer oriented, providing a service optimized for viewers rather than advertisers, not censoring people andpressuring them to make advertiser friendly content, which people would feel happier to pay for. You’ve got places like Nebula and CuriosityStream and Rumble popping up because of this incessant focus on advertiser optimization. But if viewers are only tolerating you because you’re the main game in town, you’ve gotta make some changes before that’s not the case anymore
