So Elon gutted Twitter, and people jumped ship to Mastodon. Now spez did… you know… and we’re on Lemmy and Kbin. Can we have a YouTube to PeerTube exodus next? With the whole ad-pocalypse over there, seems like Google is itching for it.

    Youtube is great as long as you don’t read the comments

      The ads are out of control, so no, it’s not great unless you use an adblocker, which on mobile doesn’t work with the native client.

        Alternatively, you could access it with Premium ‘from Argentina’ like I do. It costs me about £3 a month, which I’m fine with.

            I literally only have it so I can watch YouTube on Apple TV without wanting to put my foot through the TV. Without some kind of ad blocking, YouTube is completely fucking unusable.
