So this started coming up today. On every video. I can (so far) click the “x” and remove it to watch (still see 2 ads before the video, and one after 4 minutes - ruins music on YT), but did click the “Report issue” only for the dialogue box not to work.

I found a link to a that said 11% use adblock. Thats not a lot.Maaayyyybe there is a problem with the amount of ads youtube forces down our throats for even short videos. 🤷‍♂️

    It doesnt fund itself. It rakes it in.

    That’s still funding itself, you’re not liking the deal or your opinion of how much they should make doesn’t change that. That’s just reality.

    A few ads are fine imo. The problem is I can watch a 9 minute video and be subjected to more advertising than the telly.

    Correct, and that’s their choice, OR you can pay and get rid of them, OR do like most and block them all. DNS and Sponsorblock work wonders.
