Oh no! You are going to make your platform work like ass? And you expect us to do mental gymnastics in such a way that instead of blaming you (you know the one that has control over the platform) we blame uBlock? The same uBlock that has made using your platform bearable for many years, to the point that I will sit in silence with the screen off instead of watch with ads?
I think even if you make us wait a min before playing the video most would take that over an ad.

Stop feeding me dog shit AI videos about a condom delivery boy who has to deliver some to a hotel only to find his girlfriend cheating on him and maybe I’ll stop blocking ads you fuck sticks
YouTube was lagging to play vids the other day now i wonder if it was A B testing. screw off YouTube. 10 ads for a 20 minute video isn’t normal and never will be. also the ads pause if you aren’t watching them. wtf? as always I expect uBlock Origin to get around this
we live in a neoliberal gorgon dystopia
they also slow down videos if I use Firefox.
YouTube can eat my ass.
Really? Guess it hasn’t hit me yet. I use Firefox and haven’t noticed any slowdowns.
YouTube might bite me
They’ve already tried this.
We’ve already sidestepped it.
It’s just going to keep on going like this till a viable alternative shows up.
The banned my ip. Been looking at alternatives
How they ban you? They aren’t like reddit Nazis
If it takes too long to load I just use yt-dlp to download the video or whole playlist and watch it later. Do I care that it’s putting additional strain on YouTube’s servers? Indeed, I’m devastated and overtaken with guilt 😂 These are tears of regret, I swear 😂
makertube.net, youtube is mask off at this point
How desperate can you be to put yourself out of business?
“Might”? They’re already doing it.
YouTube in Firefox with Ublock Origin is getting throttled down to 1500kbps. I can’t watch anything above 720p on my desktop anymore (with gigabit internet).
YouTube ReVanced on mobile and SmartTube Next on the TV still thankfully work without issues.
This does not happen on my Firefox. 4k no problemo with 3rd world country internet.
They do it to groups of people at a time to prevent mass anger and hysteria. Don’t worry you’ll eventually get throttled too.
I was watching 4k yesterday. 🤞 Ublock has it sorted by the time they find me.
We need to find ways to pressurize the content creators to upload to alternative platforms like Odysee, Rumble, Nebula, Peertube, Misskey etc…
Youtube acting like it has anything to offer aside slop and people who think they’re philosopher kings because they play video games.
there’s tons on there, just because you haven’t found it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
Youtube acting like it has anything to offer
This is weapons-grade copium, there is no other platform with even 1% of the content on YouTube.
Sounds like projection but hey, you do you, it’s not as if we can learn from video games right
