Mhm, I see that point, although I find it concerning given that the quality of the UX platforms like youtube has kept a consistent decline over the past decade. It feels like google keeps amassing more and more reasons for people to enable adblockers but I also understand youtube needs to be a profitable business and at some point you need to show ads

True, these are the challenges of freeware, ads are required unless you pay or become a pirate.

Youtubers/social media now mostly have promotions within videos, so we went back to how cable functions.

Thoughts on Social media/Rumble/twitter and other video platforms will evolve over time?

I think Alphabet (Google) will keep doing things that make people leave there other platforms, youtube will take a while so changes will be more gradual.

As a small note, in an unexpected turn of events, that "sponsor block" extension popped up also blocking promotions, I find it incredibly amazing that blocking ads can even go that further

I can't put my finger on it, but somehow I feel like youtube is irreplaceable, I don't say this out of some internet patriotism, I just think the initial momentum of inertia really has to be massive to make it budge, while with fediverse-stuff you can gradually generate content and maybe some people will be attracted (?)

And twitter's trajectory is to fucking weird and unpredictable right now that I just have no clue 🙃🙃🙃
