Existence on Twitter just feels like hell on earth at this point, like beyond the Facebook critical mass/"they won't try anything else out"-esque line of reasoning staying there just comes across like some admission of masochism or something.

Doesn't Youtube do this, at least with shorts?

I'm tired of seeing ads on "how you can make 15$ watching one video and earning 20k in a month doing almost nothing" and I can't find a way to report it.

If you use android, Youtube Vanced is your answer. I haven't seen a single ad on youtube in years. It even skips the sponsorship segments if you want it to.

I say this as I'm using Revanced. I only see ads on the shorts, though.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Ah, I see what you mean now. I have all the shorts turned off on the app. I'm sure it's pretty annoying seeing all those. I'm sure there's some good content in that part but I always found it to be too ad-like as well.
