Premium is an Adblock for YouTube so far. Not for long, though.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

adnausium simulates a click on the ads to waste the advertising companies money since they pay per click.

Yeah! It breaks on occasion, so clearly YT fights back, but it's always fixed within 24hrs.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Tweet of someone saying "the best adblock for YouTube is a Premium sub" which has been photoshopped in a way to imply that the person who Tweeted has the occupation of "Slave"

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

Not photoshopped, a tweet reply I think

Make sure you don't fall for fake revanced sites, but everybody do check it out.

It takes the YouTube app file (.apk) that you download and modifies it to include or exclude certain features.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago

The premium that includes youtube music does not have ads yet. I've heard the cheaper one that doesn't include music has ads, but I can't confirm that.

Yeh I'm pretty sure i saw an article talking about premium with "limited ads" to the search engines

Edit.

Where i got the above from https://9to5google.com/2024/11/13/youtube-premium-ads-statement/

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

When I messaged about the Crunchyroll ads they said it was a problem. Must've got a lower level support guy, lol

[-] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago

I don’t mind paying for the service at a reasonable price. The US pricing is out of control.

But I have a VPN so I don’t pay that much. Sometimes YouTube kicked me off and I use another location.

But like why? IM TRYING TO PAY YOU, YOUTUBE. The next step is full Adblock and you get nothing.

Its like they don’t even want my money and would rather I just block the ads for free.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

i'm in this picture kinda (i have yt premium for music streaming) 😔

I'm in this picture kinda (i have been castrated) 😔

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Why pay for what's already free?

Kreate for Android

Yattee for iOS

[-] [email protected] -1 points 1 day ago

Because I use the YouTube app on Apple TV. It doesn’t have all the fancy stuff. Plus I want to kinda support the dozens of creators I watch without spending $120/month since they’d all be Patreon/Twitch.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

A single month of patreon is gonna give them more money than watching all their videos with ads, you can just rotate

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

Paying the streaming company does not support the artist.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

Donate a single dollar once to each of your favorite creators and you're already supporting them more than by watching with YT Premium or watching ads. The creators get a tiny fraction of the ad & subscription revenue, while YouTube keeps most for themselves - that's who you're really supporting with premium

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

It's not that I disagree with you here, but what percentage do you think a traditional production company gets out of the ad revenue a TV station pulls?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

I don't have a phone except working one which doesn't allow installation of any APKs, plus my wife also uses YT Music and YouTube family subscription

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

My father (or is it dad?) pays for YT Premium and our family uses it. I am honestly grateful for it. I mostly watch on a Smart TV from 2016, which means I can't install any of those crazy craps people recommend. I've heard the ad situation is better in Brazil

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

You can depending on what OS your SmartTV runs.

Yattee for appleTV OS

SmartTube for Android TV & Fire TV

Clipious for Android TV and Fire TV

Playlet for Roku

YouTube AdFree for WebOS (I havent used this one before, never had a WebOS device nor known anyone with one.)

and for any other device I'm sure you can just look up "(OS Name Here) Ad-free youtube client" and find results

[-] [email protected] 2 points 19 hours ago

That's impressive, though I don't like (the sound of) multiple Smart TV OSes. But the one I've mentioned can't install any if those things, it's really old.

[-] [email protected] -1 points 1 day ago

I pay for YouTube Premium because I use uBlock origin and Sponsor Block.

I still want to support the creators I watch without the need to Patreon any single one.

[-] [email protected] 39 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

If you want to support the creators, then donating is pretty much the only option.

Every year YouTube pays the creators less and demonitizes more videos for no reason. Almost nothing from YouTube Premium is going to creators. You're basically supporting YouTube and nobody else.

[-] [email protected] -3 points 1 day ago

while I agree with you, there are almost no ways to pay less than a dollar a month to a creator

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Ko-fi? Pay one time?

Community Rules

You must post before you leave

Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.

Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.

Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".

Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.

Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.

Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.

Avoid AI generated content.

Avoid misinformation.

Avoid incomprehensible posts.

No threats or personal attacks.

No spam.

Moderator Guidelines

Moderator Guidelines

  • Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
  • Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
  • When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
  • Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
  • Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
  • Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
  • Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
  • Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
  • Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
  • Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
  • Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
  • Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
  • First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
  • Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
  • No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
  • Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
  • Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.
