    The number of extensions required to make youtube not shit is outstanding. They’ve tried to make the user experience as unbearable as possible .

      Then get YouTube premium. $30/month split across 6 people, and you give more monetization to the channels you watch.

        But unfortunately even YT premium doesn’t solve some of the reasons (Shorts, “featured” content, etc.) why YT is so frustrating to use.

          why YT is so frustrating to use.

          Because they can, we still use it. It will get even worse.

            I don’t even pay 5$ for my internet connection. Okey, let’s assume i find 6 people i know that are willing to pay 5$ (a whole day worth of work from a paycheck that’s barely enough for bare minimum necessities ). The steps needed to pay youtube are as follows :

            • spoof my location to some western country to be able to create a credit card(illegal and the card can be removed at any moment )

            -since our currency is virtually worthless and the gouvernement doesn’t have a regular legal place to buy foreign currency. I have to buy currency from the black market at 1.5 their worth with a high chance of being scammed. (buying foreign currency from the black market is in a grey area judicially but it’s technically also illegal )

            I’d rather install youtube Revanced .

                Stop sucking big corpo dicks. You’re a worthless number to them. If it was legal they’d infect you with the worst malware imaginable to sell your data.
