People have been saying this for years now.

Who pays for the servers? Because if even big platforms like Signal sometimes struggle to pay the bills, in part because they spend a lot on their servers, then it’ll be dozens of times worse with video hosting

Unless we have some serious alternatives, that won’t happen anytime soon

Video hosting is really expensive. Every service running for free will eventually enshitify and turn out similar, because there’s no such thing as free massive servers

Funnily enough, it shows the localised amount.

For me in France it shows 50k€ to 69k€, so $58k to $80k at current exchange rates

It just confirms that this is USA only haha

Btw glassdoor sucks. Forces you to have an account and register work shit

if it’s a matter of years and not centuries then in fairly alright. In many countries nowadays, new borns will never have ownership of a house or flat.

Even in europe, $50k yearly would be considered a good pay, and house in major cities would also cost way more than $170k

It’s the people that make blocking lists that we should thank. I don’t think uBO makes anything themselves

If you reach the frequent limitations like X codec is premium only, then yes. Else, no, you’re free to go

I mean if they get forced ads I would understand, but at the current state I would say there are too many.

If YouTube premium was less expensive it would be a great in-between

I personally use YT premium and music by faking my country. Getting it for like 3.50€/month feels like a great deal

They probably overused yt-dlp and are now required to fill a captcha + log in to an account.

Seems like a great ad

I would prefer an ad 🤷 if it doesn’t last a stupid amount of time

You don’t have to buy a house every year

I guess you live in the USA? No one makes this amount of money

Did people stand up to call the bullshit? I guess in this kind of situation you feel threatened that if you talk, you get penalized heavily

Indeed

Fucking disgusting behavior

Conflict of interest detected

This really happened?

Cursed

ofc their goal is not to pay more, it’s to silence and harm people for standing up against the government, or for having some political opinions

The other reason is that some police units in charge of handling demonstrations like brutality, feeling powerful and harming people. They rarely get convicted because they can’t be identified, and even if they are, they’re pretty much only fired and don’t have any prison sentence
