    So a fantasy story shit how yt loses all of its customer.

    Fine, you think is a shit show story. I suppose only time will tell.

    Especially the paying ones who don’t deal with ads 👌👍. Google doesn’t give a shit if the fee loaders leave.

    Nope, paying customers still see ads put by creator, as per YT explanation. They don’t interrupt the video but if a creator add them to the video, the paying customer still see them.

    It is only a question about how much time will pass before even the paying customer start to think that he is seeing too many ads while even paying the service and have his data harvested.
    This assuming that YT would will never put ads also on the premium service, which I would not be that sure in these times…

    Fight back 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    You are bitching about slow down on a forum with a 1000 active users. You aren’t even a blip. Normal people will just pay because the service is valuable.

    Oh well, the fact that YT it trying to fight back AdBlocker seems to refute that. If the people using adblockers are really that few, why even bother ?

    You are massively entitled.

    If you say so…

    If you think it’s so shitty stop using it. You can’t.

    And why I can’t stop using YT ? Let’s say that an AdBlocker is way more convenient to have then the possibility to use YT.

    And yet you’ll bitch about $12 a month.

    It is not the 12$ a month. I pay some service more because they are worth more money and I am the customer, not the product.

    I simply am not that happy to pay to be the product.
