But let's be honest, you'd probably block their ads if they self hosted.

I only started blocking the ads when yt started allowing 2 back to back 15 second advertisements and creators started putting in mid rolls.

This crap they're pulling is downward spiral. They can't get 20% more yoy by squeezing people to pay Netflix prices for crap. And most of the creators need patrion to even survive.

I truly hoped something like Odyssey could survive and we could just dht our likes. But it just becomes a sesspool.
