Well yeah, captcha/recaptcha was never designed to stop bots, but to spy without consent. Let's not talk about the profit made by using it as unpaid labor to "decode" text and images for other companies. Should have been ditched long time ago.

Some do, others don't and as someone else said i am not going to make Patreon and do monthly sub to each of them. As I said I watch hundreds of hours per month and it's not from 4-5 creators. For me it's worth - I pay for the infrastructure and some support for the people I watch. If it's free for you it means someone else is paying.

I pay for YouTube because it does give more revenue than watching an ad to the creators. I pay 6$ and watch hundreds of hours monthly. If it was more than that I will consider alternatives and AdBlock (what I was doing before started my sub). To each their own :)

I play overwatch on endeavouros and I have better experience on it than in windows. League of legends will stop working soon. In general most of the games with rootkit anticheat clients will not work on Linux. On protondb you can see rankings and user comments about games. Last I checked 2% of all games are not working on Linux.

What could work is to impose a daily progressing fine until the firmware change Is reversed and 3rd party ink Is allowed again.
