I was using newpipe x Sponsorblock on Android exclusively, and now on desktop I've moved to freetube. Never did get the pop up telling me to remove Adblock but decided to make the jump early.
Why are so many of you alergic to paying creators to make videos? I get doing it on most sites, but buy premium of the sites like nexus mods or YouTube where people make content so they aren't making shit you enjoy for free.
I'm okay with paying for YouTube but I don't want a Google account. If Google ever reinstates having separate YT accounts then I will consider paying.
In the EU they are doing exactly that! You will be able to have individual accounts.
I mean I can respect that choice to an extent but I personally don't find too much of an issue with the account itself. I'm comfortable with it having the data it collects as it's mostly nonpersonal but I refuse to use their search engine.
