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

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

(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.

@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.

Companies pay Amazon Prime Video to show ads.

We pay Amazon Prime not to show us ads.

Amazon continues to show us ads nevertheless.

We pay Amazon extra money to stop.

@cmconseils YouTube Premium makes the platform bearable…

@cmconseils Companies pay YT and we use adblockers...

[steeph@queerchen.de]

@cmconseils Um, no, not exactly. YouTube is asking us to pay them and then we donate to our favourite Invidious host and watch YouTube through that.

@cmconseils @the5thColumnist LOL. Your alttext bot does not recognise Will Farrell .

@cmconseils DLNA it by sharing a video from YouTube on one device to the DLNA device locally and bypass the adverts.

@alterelefant
Now, the cool thing about the internet is that if you want to publish things that works (or worked) perfectly fine without these so called platforms.

That are more or less a for of digital leeches sucking money out of the economy.

So no I don't see the value here beside that they've captured nowadays most content, so one is forced to deal with them.

@fogti
It's actually an attention/eyeball economy. It's literally called that in certain contexts.

@cmconseils YouTube advertisers and users to YouTube

@cmconseils i don't see the conflict

@cmconseils
Deutsche Telekom charges consumers for broadband access and then also charges content providers for bandwidth to their customers. If you're the platform, nobody can afford not to do business there.

#Morphe and #newpipe for me.

[hardindr@mastodon.social]

@niavy @cmconseils not sure what that is, I use YouTube too much, but not as a creator

[niavy@masto.bike]

@hardindr
Newpipe is basically YouTube Premium for free.
@cmconseils

[hardindr@mastodon.social]

@niavy @cmconseils hmm, okay…

[redsad@ohai.social]

@cmconseils I absolutely will not pay them
