YouTube is unwatchable

DavidLincoln — Sat, 28 Sep 2024 10:29:30 GMT

The incessant stream of advertisements has made YouTube unwatchable. Last video of 7:32 mins I wanted to watch was prefaced by an unskippable 5:34 advertisement. Seriously, YouTube you get paid for the advertising (I understand that), but then double dipping and asking your viewers to subscribe to add blocking is double dipping. I don’t mind a 10-15sec add, but seriously 5:34!
Bing is the new YouTube

Just pirate Youtube with the many ways online. I can't even watch Youtube videos at all. I get a "content not available" I pay for premium as well lol. Youtube never responded to my many emails and it seems to be a legitimate issue that many people are facing. I canceled my subscription as I can't even watch anything. The ads are horrendous. I am now using ad blockers in Chrome, Smarttube Next on my TV, and revanced on my phone.
