I have task manager forced front, so even if my game shits the bed the task manager will always appear in front of it.

Against all odds? This is a game that's been going on for year, hacker vs Corp, and the hacker always wins. Same shit as anticheat in games, it's a constant arms race but the hacker is nearly always a step ahead.

I actually bought premium just before the change, never actually got hit with the ad blocker blocker. Premium does appear to pay creators a respectable amount of the money so I consider it worth it. I also watch a huge amount of YouTube, and probably wouldnt have bought it if it wasn't my primary entertainment platform.

If I had to sit through ads, premium or no, I'd be pretty done with YouTube.

Waiting for Bluetooth to connect, putting on seatbelt, fixing Bluetooth, putting drinks in drink holders, waiting for Bluetooth, turning on lights, fixing Bluetooth.

I talked to their support about the library force refresh and it's apparently intended. That library refresh is literally the only reason the EGS isn't open all the time like Steam is. Random data usage is bad, and can fuck off. I do not need random lag spikes.

I mean, 6+ hours of video a day without ads, while actually supporting the creators I watch. I watch enough people I can't afford to give them all money on patreon or buy merch. I have youtube running like 50% of the time I'm home and awake, and after a decade of using ad block (because honestly, fuck ads), I figured it was about time I started paying for it.

There is an amount that I'll think is too much and I'll go back to my old ways, but I have a minimum wage job in a country where that means something so the fqct I'm now paying $17 a month instead of whatever it was before, like 13 I think, I'm not too bothered.

I also don't pay for other subscriptions because what youtube has is just better. Like cool, Netflix has movies and shit, but similar exists on youtube and a lot of creators make better content for me than most of what's on Netflix.

I watch like six+ hours of YouTube a day, even if it's on the side of a game or something, feel like I'm getting my moneys worth.

I had issues with what my work use for online training with Firefox, not often, but occasionally a module will just break. I just use edge in those cases, given its basically chrome anyway.
