Initially the increase in frequency of the advertising on Android youtube app. Followed by uBlock being broken in Chrome. Followed by uBlock being tarpitted in Firefox. Followed by FreeTube client getting 403 IP forbidden requests and DRM content shovelled down which could not be rendered.
They just did everything to make sure I watched the ads and burn all my bandwidth, which can be somewhat limited and expensive as I travel a lot.
- myko 1y agoDid you consider YouTube Premium? It works really well and no ads. Seems like a pittance for the service YouTube provides
- jklas2hjdsdk 1y ago$180 dollars annually is a pittance to you? So please enlighten us...? You could certainly change a persons life with that. It is not a trivial sum, so please do not insult poorer members of this community.
