    @cmconseils hmm or rather I block YouTubers ads and if one slips through and is an ad for a legit product/service and not some AI, stocks or crypto scam I make sure to not buy that product/service.

    Do your part to make Alphabet/Google as little money as possible.

              @springdiesel Ratthi poked absently at the food left on his plate, then slid it over to Arada so she could finish it off. “That solid-state screen interface, I’ve seen those in historical displays.”

                Yeah I didn't think that would work.

                Found it.

                "The company is like an evil vending machine, you put money in and it does what you want, unless somebody else puts more money in and tells it to stop."

                      But (soon if not now) companies can pay *more* to show ads to people who pay not to see them.

                                        @renardboy @Legit_Spaghetti @cmconseils add sponsorblock as well. It uses community notes to auto skip the YouTuber ad reads and promos.

                                        Link Preview Image
                                        Home

                                        SponsorBlock is a crowdsourced browser extension to skip sponsor segments in YouTube videos.

                                        favicon

                                        (sponsor.ajay.app)

                                        Its amazing how well it works. Right after any big youtuber releases a video, it skips over them. Even smaller youtubers will ad skip within a few minutes of release, and if not, the plugin let's you easy annotate the start - stop to help others.

                                          That is kind of how it works. Running a platform like that does however cost money therefore I don't mind too much paying a little.

                                          @alterelefant @cmconseils poor google, that is barely able to scrape by with all their honest business practices. You really know how to look out for honesty and decency! Nice post.
