Ugh, you didn't even pay for Premium Plus?

Bloody peasant...

[–] [email protected] 71 points 4 days ago (1 children)

And this is why i,won't start paying them money. They will never be content and will just keep pushing ads further and further.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Yeah the price will increase or ads or both. But it never just stops. It's never enough

Imagine paying money to see 2 fucking ads before a video.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Its like going to the local cinema, ads before the movie.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 4 days ago (13 children)

I went to a Regal Cinema for the first time a few months ago and they played 20 minutes of ads that began at the advertised movie start times. Insane.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I went to my local theater expecting this and ended up missing the first ten minutes of Venom 3. I guess the moral of the story is... Shop local?

It's always been that way. Previews interspersed with coke ads.

I feel like you don't fully understand that the line can go up. At the expense of everything...

Fiduciary duties cut both ways.

[–] [email protected] 85 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Huh weird, the only reason to use Premium is to cut out the adverts.

"Would you like to buy Premium?" "Ooh, what do I get?" "YOU GET NOTHING! GOOD DAY SIR!"

[–] [email protected] 87 points 4 days ago (1 children)

The add is German for sure so that would make sense

[–] [email protected] 49 points 4 days ago (2 children)

It also says "DE" next to the logo, so yeah.

Also barbie Deutsch......hmm, we may need to hire a forensic scientist to solve this.

Redditor username have Germany too.

[–] [email protected] 37 points 4 days ago (1 children)

And they have a German accent. I can tell from the way they type.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Having seen plenty of pixels in my time, I can confirm that those are German pixels.

Firefox with ad blocker? You are wasting your money.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I have ad blocker on my pc, but pay for youtube premium for the TV app and the youtube music.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

Use LibreTube or InnerTune, no need to pay. I've heard good things about SmartTube too

[–] [email protected] 52 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (8 children)

My wife uses a TV to watch YouTube, My kid uses a phone, My other kid uses a tablet.

Saying just use ad block isn't feasible for everyone.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

uBlock origin and Sponsorblock work for me on Firefox Android Beta.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 4 days ago (2 children)

SmartTube for TV and ReVanced/uYouPlus for Andriod/IOS devices. SmartTube can be tricky to set up depending on the TV, but the mobile apps are relatively simple to get working.

If you use something Android based for watching YouTube on the TV (some TVs, fireTV stick, etc.), you can: https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTube?tab=readme-ov-file

I haven't watched a single Ad on YouTube on TV (SmartTube), mobile (ReVanced), or PC (Firefox + uBlock origin) since it became unbearable... five years ago or so?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Even on an iPhone, you can use vinegar to block YT ads. Or Firefox Focus.

On a TV use SmartTube. On QN Android device (phone or tablet) use LibreTube (or InnerTune for music)

[–] [email protected] 15 points 4 days ago (2 children)

And then you're stuck constantly reminding every family member which app to use on which device when they come to you because they're getting ads or something isn't working right.

For a single power use that's fine, for a family with kids, it's nearly impossible without going crazy and killing them.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 4 days ago

I took the YouTube app from the main screen and let only the smartube app so everyone is forced to use it. Worked

[–] [email protected] 14 points 4 days ago (1 children)

The stock YouTube app can be disabled, and they only have one choice... Works for my kids.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

This. Remove/block options that allow ads and keep the ones that filter then.

Do creator even get any real amount of money from the money collected through premium?

Buying premium seems like the dumbest shit imaginable to me.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

They get 2/3, as opposed to 55% of ad revenue and nothing from adblock users

[–] [email protected] 46 points 4 days ago (1 children)

They do, and based on reported stats it gets them more per viewer. No idea if anybody's audited those stats though

[–] [email protected] 22 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Not sure about currently but at least a year or two ago creators could see the split of premium views & income vs free views and income and premium views always paid out more

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago

They still can. Whether premium or ad supported views pays more depends on the channel and the value of the adverts that are streamed on it. For channels / topics that advertisers are keen to appear on the ad supported views pay more, for more niche interests the premium views pay more.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 4 days ago (1 children)

It used to be free AND ad-free.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Sure but that's obviously unsustainable

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago (1 children)

But something like $7 for premium without ads is absolutely sustainable. But, you know, line go up more.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

Yeah the prices do keep creeping up.. And they should have kept Premium Lite without YT Music

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 days ago

Yes being greedy expecting exponential growth is unsustainable
