I don't spend a lot of time on there, so some of the "new to me" stuff is probably fairly old.

But, I hopped on this weekend searching for videos on a specific topic and I was inundated with "Shorts". Brief clips that from what I gather contain no valuable information and which require you to be on crack or meth to keep up with? I dunno?

Then I noticed that an old account I used to watch way back in the day showed up on my subscriptions page, so I clicked in to look at that, and now they have accounts or videos that you have to pay to watch/subscribe to? Is this OnlyFans without the sex stuff now?

Then to top it off, the close captions are apparently 100% AI and every sentence displayed is something like "Gum potion trial and barrier for job put chin". Like I thought this stuff was supposed to be intelligent, it's basically right there in the name, or am I missing something?

I just have to make sure to be a bit patient and not hit play the second i can - if i wait until the video controls are loaded and use those, i never had any "interruption" except of that laughable popup

On mobile i use grayjay, and this reminded me that i gotta test the new desktop versions.

I just started copying and pasting everything into invidious

What ad lock do you use with ublock I don't remember it showing

I just use private tab. The interruptions seem to be based on that

If you put a "-" between the "t" and the "u" in your video link, (www.yout-ube.com) You will get it advert free
