Comment on What the fuck happened to YouTube!?

All these comments about adblockers - you’re truly naive if you think those are going to last in any capacity.
Chrome/Edge are already going to be neutering the majority of the functionality with manifest v3.
Firefox is already starting to see some commercialization/enshitification with this new exec. Adblocker days are numbered. Soon they’ll be streaming the ads in-line with the videos everywhere and you’ll need to have a special hacked up rig just to content filter and be forced to sit in silence for X minutes.
Just because the problem is at your neighbors house, doesn’t mean it won’t come to yours.

Ah what a very helpful and hopeful look into the future that totally doesn’t ignore the present.
