But it is.

Why would anyone want to bring a kid into this clown show hell? Not to mention who can afford it.

Smarter, more educated people tend to, by and large, make smarter decisions. I.e. not bringing a kid into the world if you know you can’t afford to. Or you recognize that you kid is probably going to have a way harder go of things than you did.

Educated people have fewer children. It’s true in every developed nation.

Day old account with negative karma. Of course they’re a troll. Ignore them, move on with your life.

You must have a piss-poor adblocker.

Youtube doesn’t let you download the videos directly. If they did, you’d be right. The fact that the original yt-dl was shut down by Youtube kinda disproves your point all by itself.

it downloads them directly from YouTube

Thus, pirating them. More or less by the same method that is used to download every single WEB-DL movie/episode you see on torrent sites.

The front page is a direct reflection of the content you engage with.

It’d be real nice if people would actually use their brains and realize this.

How have you never heard of yt-dlp?

Incognito window =)

Running personalDNSFilter (whole phone, non-root adblocker) blocks ads just fine for me in the official unmodified Youtube app.

Chrome + Ublock Origin Lite also still works, fyi.

Pretty easy to know, in fact. Same way Netflix, Disney, or HBO knows. Same account, accessed simultaneously from two distinct IP addresses. Not really rocket surgery.

Nice try FBI

No one is going to sponsor a creator who has no way to garner an audience.

Linus has nowhere near a PB worth of content, between all of his channels.

LOTS of big creators post their videos multiple places.

Yea, revenue certainly wouldn’t be the same. As in, there would be no revenue.

I’ve built probably 350 PCs for customers over the last decade. Not the norm.

And you are an insufferable twat.
