Who in the actual fuck still uses satellite? Are they also still on dial-up? Do they have a rotary phone at home in lieu of cell phones?

Because you can always just use adblock... for free

Youtube premium is pretty pointless when ublock origin exists.

Edit: sorry should have clarified. I meant in terms of blocking ads. I realize that you still can't play youtube videos and switch apps.

I've rarely ever had issues with adblockers. Install one and it works totally fine for multiple years until you might need to install a new adblocker.

Does…. Any one, actually, you know, subscribe for YouTube?

Firefox+UBO and Revanced users: Oh no... anyway...

[–] Bjaldr@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 3 years ago (1 children)

They're blocking users who use UBO

Block their Google account or block from viewing videos on YouTube?

[–] legalfinding@lemmynsfw.com 0 points 3 years ago (1 children)

They started blocking people who use ad blockers from watching videos if they don't disable it on YouTube. I think they just started doing it in the last few weeks
