I don’t even pay 5$ for my internet connection.
Okey, let’s assume i find 6 people i know that are willing to pay 5$ (a whole day worth of work from a paycheck that’s barely enough for bare minimum necessities ). The steps needed to pay youtube are as follows :
spoof my location to some western country to be able to create a credit card(illegal and the card can be removed at any moment )
-since our currency is virtually worthless and the gouvernement doesn’t have a regular legal place to buy foreign currency. I have to buy currency from the black market at 1.5 their worth with a high chance of being scammed. (buying foreign currency from the black market is in a grey area judicially but it’s technically also illegal )
Stop sucking big corpo dicks. You’re a worthless number to them. If it was legal they’d infect you with the worst malware imaginable to sell your data.
Lol I’m not sucking anyone’s dick, I’m just tired of people complaining about YouTube and Google “stealing their data” when they are using things like YouTube that cost insanely large amounts of money to maintain. Users who are using ad blockers and not signing up for premium thereby stripping them of monetization that they need to maintain the services and pay content creators essentially expecting them to keep YouTube running as a form of charity. The fact that I’m here having to tell people to knock it off is a very bad sign considering how anti corporation I am. If their user share is growing as fast as it is while their revenue per user is dropping them tell me how you would solve that problem outside of targeting features favored by users that aren’t using ad blockers. Do you think that reducing the number of ads in the hope that those currently using ad blockers will immediately disable them and thereby make up that disparity? Because I doubt that seriously. Do you think that they should stop collecting data with the expectation that advertisers are going to spend the same amount for less effective advertising? Because I don’t. So please tell me how you would handle this.
Am virtually worthless advertisement wise . Our currency is worthless and I can’t buy anything.
Google is making money off youtube since 2016(not sure of the year but they’re making money ). But Investors want more and more money every quarter and since everyone in the world already have a youtube account the only way is to squeeze it from the userbase a bit more each time.
Am not against ads but they’ve become unbearable and worst they’re designed to literally exploit how my brain works to force me into buying their stuff and that alone is enough to never want to see an ad ever again.
I will probably make in a lifetime of work what you’ll make in 2-3 years so we’re not in the same situation.
The number of extensions required to make youtube not shit is outstanding. They’ve tried to make the user experience as unbearable as possible .
Then get YouTube premium. $30/month split across 6 people, and you give more monetization to the channels you watch.
Lol 30$ may be nothing to you but that 1/5 of the regular paycheck in here. I’d rather not starve.
Split among 6 people that’s $5

I’d rather install youtube Revanced .
Okay then don’t use YouTube or stop bitching.

I forgot what album Sony did that with

But unfortunately even YT premium doesn’t solve some of the reasons (Shorts, “featured” content, etc.) why YT is so frustrating to use.
Because they can, we still use it. It will get even worse.
