I stopped watching youtube for entertainment when i got spammed with cookie thingy, although i'm a type of guy who will wait for 5 hours for torrent to download instead of paying 2 bucks.

Now i just catch up on invidious every week with pbs spacetime and wtyp shrug-outta-hecks

This guy will just sheepishly retreat into the videogames he claims to hate on /v/. America's reputation is so low that it's fun to think that these guys not getting good enough TV and games means a world war has to happen, but in reality their butthurt doesn't influence stuff like that, it's just a narcissistic cope.

Also the content isn't gone, they just have to watch ads. He's just plain making shit up.

id take this shitty version then the one theyre rolling on me now. Its a similar pop up but instead of giving me 3 videos to watch before an ad I have to wait a time before it lets me close out of the pop up and play the video...for every single video. Pulling up like 6-7 videos in background and then having to do that every time is bullshit. Im literally gonna not use youtube anymore. Is there like a nitter for youtube or some shit. I am not watching fucking ads on a desktop...

invidious. but like nitter, youtube will occasionally break it, and instances will appear and disappear.

i have this one too but it's like 5sec. Not ideal but way better than watching an ad. My connection sucks i'm usually sitting around for at least 5sec for the video to load anyway

Could you just use OffLiberty to download the videos locally to circumvent the ads?
