Good. 99% of YouTube is unmitigated shit

Google last year was the most profitable company in the history of humanity. Analysts expected it to continue to grow
Perpetual growth expectations are absurd. There is no level of profit they'll be satisfied with
That’s a shame. Anyways.
Gosh. Maybe I shouldn't be blocking all those ads.
Naaaahhhhhhh!

Why can't companies operate on a sustainable revenue model? Why does it always need to be constant growth year over year?
replies:
It's almost like flooding your ad saturated platform with AI content, while simultaneously punishing and alienating genuine creators, is a bad idea.
I've had my YouTube adblocked for quite some time now.
Fuck them and their disgusting practices.
They need to stop having unrealistic expectations of constant growth. But tell that to any cancer and see where it gets you.
replies:
Maybe they should focus on making a great platform instead of a shitty one. Just an idea.
replies:
I have to actually be thankful to the flood of AI slop content in my feed.
It was the final push I needed to stop trying to randomly browse YouTube and use my time in more interesting ways.
I've jumped ship to nebula and dropout. Spending less money for what I actually want and also getting zero ads and slop.
replies:
Have they tried cramming unskipable ads everywhere?
replies:
Bring back dislikes
replies:
I’m sure it has something to do with the AI slop it’s become.
What are ads?
replies:
Maybe they should make their site another fucking endless scroll where they blend videos with shorts and memes, making it more like every other social media site 🫠
As someone that pays for premium, my subscription is very very VERY vaguely tenable at best.
It is worth the price of access but just barely, it is a case of it the quality dips any further or the price increases even slightly then I will be back to the old path.
Alas, with Google intent on closing the side loading gap on android, things like Newpipe are going to go the way of the Dodo.
