wow just wow while i can't say i didn't see this one coming but it always amazes me where greed could lead someone
I'm not paying for YouTube. It's algorithm sucks, it routinely sells your personal data, and virtually none of the money you spend goes to its creators--that YouTube pretends otherwise is repulsive. How did we get in the situation where we're being asked to pay more and more for worse and worse services? I'm not gonna be a part of it.
I'd be fine with ads and even paying if the creators weren't treated like trash and the number of ads weren't ridiculously obtrusive.
It's hard to imagine that situation wouldn't always lead us here. The advertiser-centric internet has got to go.
