I know i get Downvotes all the way, but just pay for YouTube Premium. I do it a while now and me and my wife use YouTube Music for Music Streaming (wich i like more than Spotify). NewPipe is no Solution for me, cause i watch YouTube on my TV and listen Music on my Smart Speaker.
I’m not really a fan of sponsor block. It’s pretty much the most privacy respecting way of advertising and safe income for the creator. Seems like a win−win. I don’t like watching ads but I’d rather watch a sponsor segment than a YouTube ad
I see your point, but I really wish we could go back to a more innocent internet, when people make slightly crappy videos as a hobby, rather than overproduced shows as a profession.
I thoroughly enjoy well produced content by the likes of Veritasium, Captain Disillusion, Mark Rober, Lemmino, Potato Jet and more. I do see where you’re coming from tho
There still are people doing it as a hobby and some even consider it a hobby despite the high production quality. Those channels are harder to find, though and that is kind of sad. I can’t help but wonder what would’ve been if we hadn’t commercialised the web.
