I cannot imagine they make more money off me with ads than just asking me money to buy them away like YouTube premium (minus that they allow sponsors in the videos which I think should be a violation if I have Premium but ok). So why don’t they offer that; let me pay something to stop tracking, snooping etc and showing ads. I have never clicked an ad in my life.
- eru 3y agoAlas, if you let the people with enough money pay for making the ads go away, your remaining ad audience will be poorer on average, and perhaps less interesting for ad space buyers.
- anonzzzies 3y agoThat makes sense. Shame people don’t drop overly ad ridden platforms as there are no usable alternatives.
- eru 3y agoWell, it's all about compromises. The market mostly provides what people are willing to pay for. Yes, it's a shame that other people have different preferences from me sometimes, so that the market for what I want is smaller. But, hey, variety is the spice of life. You can get pretty far with ad-blockers.
