True, but you can fast-forward through them.

Can’t do that with ads.

I LOVE PCMatic. Made here in America, a great antivirus that uses a whitelist system to keep more sites out. Just $50 per year or $150 for the Evergreen.

They used to advertise heavily. Now I see their ads occasionally.

What version do you use, the $50 or $150?

I use a laptop with 2nd (LARGER) monitor at home.

The nag screen to buy MWB appears only on my laptop screen and I hardly ever notice it.

Regardless, I’d tolerate repeatedly closing the small window for the agreeable side effect (ZERO YT ads).

#70 I believe all the web browsers use the same software for the add-ons. It made it easier for the developers. Hope uBlock Orgin keeps on working.

I have the evergreen. Never needs to be renewed.

I have not figured it out. TicToc is a better option. Need to get it out of the hands of the ChiComs.

I just found out the uBlock Origin has shut down. I also read where Google will disable uBO in their web browser this year.

Has anyone seen this?

I just found out that uBlock Origin has shut down operations, and that Google will disable the extension. Bad news for everyone who uses uBO.

I hear ya. I’m about ready to stop visiting YouTube if we can no longer block the ads.

That is bad news. Gotta go to plan B, C, or D now I guess.

Won’t pay the ransom.

That’s also the reason I’ll never donate using SuperChat. Google tales a huge cut.

My solution: I have sworn that I will never buy anything I’ve ever seen advertised on YouTube.

So far it’s been amazingly easy for me to keep that promise.
