…no it’s not?
Edit: yes it is
Imagine paying for youtube 😂 Giving the big bully more money.
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 :)
They don’t have patreon?
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.
Use NewPipe on Android, problem solved.
Or LibreTube. They even have a Lemmy community: !libretube@feddit.rocks
Didn’t knew about the communnity. Suscribed.
Big tech can cheat the system by paying their taxes on countries in which they are lower, but when you try to do the same:
thats literally fraud. Consider yourself lucky they’re not some other online marketplaces.
