Someone please add a vivaldi-like tab tiling feature in Firefox so I can switch to it and leave the chromium cancer away.
Somehow, I'm not even able to see ads on my system. I have firefox with ublock, sync on my three systems macOS, linux and windows. Not a single ad in years. I've tried to disable ublock, just to see the mess, and it still wont play ads. Lol. Anyway, I will stop watching youtube before watching ads. I always watch the sponsor thing tho.
Seriously just use invidious. Ad-free + doesn't hard consume your resources
What prevents them from going in video adds? Technically difficult? Or what?
They think they can do whatever they want but companies have been shown wrong time and time again.
Hah. Eat shit and die youtube.
Send email to your fav. Youtubers to start a channel on Odyssey. Hope we get a comparable alternative. Odyssey is pretty good. Load time is less and video quality is great. Just need content creators. Does anyone know if Odyssey pays its content creators?
Yeah you heard them - Firefox.
How did YouTube become the monopoly it is? Seems they were always riding Vimeo’s coattails and have been rewarded handsomely for it.

Back then Google was "do no evil", and they had the infrastructure and the finances to support an endeavor like YouTube.
For some reason, I'd never heard of vimeo until YouTube was already the default video powerhouse.
