So this started coming up today. On every video. I can (so far) click the “x” and remove it to watch (still see 2 ads before the video, and one after 4 minutes - ruins music on YT), but did click the “Report issue” only for the dialogue box not to work.

I found a link to a that said 11% use adblock. Thats not a lot.Maaayyyybe there is a problem with the amount of ads youtube forces down our throats for even short videos. 🤷‍♂️

      Maybe we should be asking our favourite people on the site if they have alternative video sites they use?

        Seriously, cause there is no repository as deep as YouTube available if you want to learn something. Just the immense knowledge there makes it the only streaming cost I think is worthy. I can watch everything else made on a variety of *irate sites but not the content there. I learned CAD design on YouTube and make excellent money because of it. I say fuck all the other services instead.

          I like udemy but yes, costs like 10 dollar per course to learn something and it goes a lot deeper than YouTube. But good courses!
