Enjoying YouTube is quickly becoming a case of the juice not being worth the squeeze
Drink the Kool-aid instead and join Premium. It's great. YouTube is my primary source of video entertainment. No ads on any device and countless thousands of hours of math and science videos, SNL clips, educational videos, game reviews, and on and on.
For the cost of two beers a month, I get access to the best video library in the world with no ads, plus saved video progress so you can resume videos later, and YouTube Music to boot.
Why everyone on Lemmy thinks everything in the world should be free when it costs money to run the servers and pay content creators is beyond me. Makes no sense.
I will never pay Google a dime. They make enough off of us. It's really easy to download the video you want to watch and watch it on a stand alone player with you guessed it, NO FUCKING ADS.
I also don't trust them that they won't sell my data if I pay them
You know they'll still sell it.
