To me the most annoying part is everyone is so entrenched in youtube they either need to accept its a service they should pay for or start looking at migrating. There cant be any viable alternative if there isn’t an audience.
There are multiple workarounds for YouTube ads like Revanced on Android for example. On Computer I didn’t encounter any issues for using the uBlock Origin extension.
Add Youtube to the list…
Yeah YouTube is one of the more annoying ones imo
Yeah. Lack of any viable alternatives really sucks with YouTube in particular. Hosting video is too damn expensive.

Lemmy didn’t have an audience for about 4 years until it did.
What’s happened to YouTube? It’s been more or less the same experience for me.
Unless this is about ads? But tbh i don’t even consider that to be remotely on the same scale as the issues with Reddit and Twitter
At least they’ve had (bad) attempts at blocking adblockers recently. Search function has became almost unusable etc.
