"Google shouldn't be allowed to operate as a loss leader" - Reddit and Lemmy
"Paying for the service? Fuck that" - Also lemmy and Reddit.
Amazing. As if these communities are made with thousands of people having different opinions.
And here's mine: since Google used their position to essentially destroy any competition in this area, why should be my duty to protect their revenue? Even if I can afford to pay their services, I won't and will actively discourage anyone else from doing so, by installing uBlock, ReVanced, NewPipe, SmartTube, GrayJay etc.
It's not your duty at all but it's funny when you guys bitch about it with such fervor. It comes off as incredibly entitled.
