Fuck Nestle but also kitkat tastes good
Enough that your insurance rates will probably go up
Another sane take. Seriously, a breath of fresh air after seeing people on both Reddit and Lemmy talking about this with the entitlement of the average r/ChoosingBeggars post
To be fair, this is the most sane take I've seen about this from the pro adblock side. That's actually fucked up if they killed it out of nowhere but also sounds like Google.
Yeah, but where's the user base and content? That's why YouTube is successful.
As much as I love to shit on Elon Musk and ~~twitter~~ X, the fact that he's paying users that generate traffic to his website means that he realizes the importance of user generated content. That's one good thing I commend him for.
The problem is that running a video streaming platform is too expensive for there to be competition and YouTube is the only platform with the user base to be able to do it while being profitable. If you want no ads because ads are annoying but you also don't want to pay for premium, you're advocating for piracy (which I'm not against either), but if you expect them to keep the servers running even after that, you're not living in reality
Just to add one more thing, if your criticism of premium is that they still collect your data after that, fair enough (get newpipe), but if you simply want to use YouTube for free and aren't that bothered about your privacy (like when you use adblock on a browser) then that's not consistent with that argument either.
That's a fair criticism. I personally don't care about it because I gave up on the idea of having any privacy ages ago but I get that people may not be happy with that.
If I were to play devil's advocate, I can say that the data they collect is important for serving you the right videos but let's be real here, Google definitely uses it to serve you ads everywhere else
This may be a hot take but I think it's quite important for YouTube to be profitable because of how difficult running a video platform is already causing there to be no competition. Yeah, I would 100% prefer YouTube without ads (I pay for Premium) and I would love for there to be competition but considering the state of video streaming and how expensive it gets, I'm all for YouTube getting money.
Honestly, I don't get pirating windows. Even if you don't want to use a Windows 7 license, you can just use it without activating it
There's a European store near my house called wedel lmao. I'll see if they have it there
