meh, its still not inconvenient enough to pay 10+ dollars a month. The state of adverts online is so egregious that I would probably sooner stop watching Youtube than pay or put up with ads.

Dang, thanks. I read the post, thought it wasn't happening to me, and I just realized that the start of some videos is being throttled. The more ya know

and i might just stop using youtube. does youtube think there aren't other options?
What options?
Where can I find stuff about fixing my motorcycle? Oceanliners? Deep Space documentaries? Fixing dieselinjectors in my car etc? -
I read somewhere that nebula was paying a good bit more per view, and paid per minute watched
Pretty sure you still have to be invited to join nebula.

Nebula's getting better and I spend more time there now than on YouTube. Happy that YouTube is working hard to encourage this transition.

I was paying for a whole family (premium). But I will not pay and send money to a fascist state. We've cancelled all our us based services.

I'll never go there. Paid is a no way situation.

Did exactly that early days of hulu.
Same. That ole "You seem to be using a proxy service" text served as a nice break

How they ban you? They aren't like reddit Nazis
Must have been temporary. Pipepipe displayed a message saying ~"youtube has blocked this ip", but it's working now.

I never paid and have been using NewPipe for the past 6+ years.

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
Peertube has already delivered the sustainable model: creators host their own videos and viewers assist distribution.

hell of a lot less censorship, and better video quality there as well.

All they need that I see is missing, is a way to discover / search everyone from any instance. Like, a consolidated / federated search.
