    Google seem to be sabotaging their own platform so they can get more money from users, the simple solution is to install uBlock Origin if you are on Firefox and enable the Annoyance filters to stop their idiocy.

    Had to remove my adblocker in order to get back the autoplay button. Videos would just automatically play and be in theatre mode and there were no options to turn them off till I turned off my adblocker. I’m pissed.

    Brave browser gets rid of all of the YouTube ads. I never had premium and I never see an ad. There’s also a YouTube sponsor block that lets you auto skip self-promotions and in video sponsorships.

    Look at it this way- they don’t really make money off Youtube. They operate it at a loss. That loss is pretty huge, because not only are they hosting videos, they’re hosting literally twenty years of video.
