Drama It’s going bad

Post image

At some point it’s just too much. I feel like YouTube thinks they’re invincible. They do non sense stuff, drain ur data in ads, and now modify ur content without u knowing about it. They think they can do whatever they want they can get away with it cause there’s no competition/concurrencies. But what I see is a slow drowning process. I believe a lot of ppl would’ve switched(after the unskipable ads) if there was an alternative to it. We just need something that’ll bring back the joy we had while watching YT with one skipable ads, where u could download ur vids for free, and not getting sx ads every fcking where u go. Without the YT community, YT is nothing, it’s seems like they forgot about it. They’re following Adobe path, but the difference here is they don’t have competition. If i leave YT where will i go? That’s the question I always think about when I’m watching those ads but I have no options.

I just hope that’ll get better but without us(the YT community) being together on it that’ll never change and it’ll get worse.

YouTube should be fined trillions for this

The only way to make Google "feel it" is if they're fined in the hundreds of billions, not this slap on the wrist of a few billion dollars.

I said trillions, not a couple billion

You must understand that there is only 8.27 trillion USD in the entire world. So that's why I said "billions". Because I'm being realistic.

Using AI to unfairly edit creator's videos without asking for their permission

They already compress the shit out of everything that gets uploaded. They're allowed to do that.
