Yup.

Sure, the long term productivity and quality takes a nosedive, but the shareholders don't care about that as long as the numbers for the next quarter look better.

Personally, I was fine with paying for "Premium Lite", which was reasonably priced, removed ads, and gave channels you watched some revenue.

But youtube removed this subscription tier a few weeks ago, leaving only the twice as expensive "Premium". Since I, and I assume most others who subscribed to "Premium Lite", has no use for the other stuff included in the more expensive tier the cost is no longer justified for me. Back to finding increasingly exotic ways of getting around their ads I guess.

Man I just want to actually be able to buy a Pi 4 at non-scalper rates.

Yeah, wow, this is really great if it's accurate enough.
