From the creators' perspective, it's a very good move but what about the visitors? Google has become greedy as everyone has said in this forum.

Is really annoying, I'm ok with the ads but there are just a few to really get me angry and are the only ones I see the all time, but it was a really good move from youtube, but people is being finding some ways to skip them like start the video keep it for 5 or 10 seconds then move the cursor till the end another 5 or 10 seconds let it finish reload the site and the all video will load with no ads but not always work I believe I'm doing something wrong but is a really good way to promote their youtube premium and escape the millions of ads in their videos.

If you watch any kind of self-help, self-educational videos these ads pop up. Not like we are searching for billionaire courses.

yes they are, usually an ad is related to the video that you are watching, I’ve noticed that while I’m watching marketing videos I get ads about website hosting

I saw a glimpse of that shit tonight, I clicked away and it is not shown again.
Not sure if they are going to fully force on every body in the near future.
For sure, I will bypass and if not move from the platform, Currently the competition is HOT, so they can't force shit.

Nahh, people who say google is greedy for not allowing ad blockers on youtube are the ones who are actually greedy and stupid.
I mean, come on man, I don't know what kind of environment you're living in but you cant just use someone else's service without paying. thats stealing in a sense lol.
Google invested astronomical amount of money on their servers and you just want to use them without giving them anything in return, tell me whos being greedy again

would love to see more of a switch to platforms like Odysee, where viewers pay the creators directly in crypto
I get those ads on cat videos too.

YouTube provides a free service. They pay creators and themselves through ads (or premium membership). Using an ad blocker means you're not paying the creator or YouTube for the free service you received. There are alternative streaming platforms, but you don't want to go there, because YouTube has the best platform. Who's being greedy?
100% this. It blows my mind people are complaining a business (and creators) wants to make money. I'd expect something like this from Reddit, but not from a forum full of entrepreneurs who pay for hosting and have a general understanding how expensive it would be to run a service like YouTube.
This is coming from someone who actively uses brave browser with ad block enabled. If/When the party is over, I'll be paying for premium or sticking through watching ads.

YouTube doesn't care what you think, if you don't like don't use.
