it seems like an excuse to introduce banner ads below the video for non-premium users. EDIT: on second thought, about the nudge to use the comments section comes across as tone deaf. comments to me appear as a portion of the page visited by a small fraction of users as is. meanwhile, it is spammed with spam and phishing comments generated by ever-changing means. (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38652681 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38652681) without fully addressing this issue, exposing the comments to more users will probably lead to an increase in more outroar. on the other hand, more people need to see "who is listening this in May 2024?" comments on a song that came out last week. /s
