Given the direction Youtube is going I'm extremely hesitant to just give them money to stop ads and after so many years of little exposure to them I can't stand how obnoxious they are. If they're this aggressive about going after a small minority of users for a blip in revenue then it makes me wonder what quality reducing decisions will happen after this if it goes over well.
- _cenw 3y agoIs it really that small though?
- lepus 3y agoWe have a biased perspective compared to what the average user does, so only Youtube knows, but I do know the vast majority of people I know outside of tech don't even use adblockers.
- goalieca 3y agoI always imagined a substantial amount of YouTube views is from apps like their native YouTube app.
