Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

Yeah, I feel like I'm being deceived. Just tell me you're going to give me an ad and ask me to watch it so it'll help your views/algorithm.
Don't make up a story or pivot from the original topic.
Well anyways so there's this thing called Square Space...
I'm sorry. I had to do it.
It's really funny tho.
The reason they don't do this is because it doesn't work. Nobody wants to watch an ad
I agree they could just no-effort it or something, I prefer the ones that are blunt, or a little surreal in a way that clearly tips off they don't want you to buy the schlock, but best is just not seeing them. Ultimately they've gotta make a living and that's the way youtubers do it, and having good metrics helps spread their message in addition to helping with sponsors, so idk. Just as much as they as a creator could simply not do embedded sponsorships or do them in a way you like, you could also just not watch content that does that, or use sponsorblock or smth. Either way its an individual solution
