On the Internet, nobody knows you’re a human.

You have a problem with profits, mate, not with ads.
I’m not disagreeing with you there, but also, I like the things I like to exist without waiting for the revolution.
My brother in Christ, being watched is the goal of any content creator, that’s unrelated to advertisements. Now Youtube ads are paid (lets simplify a bit) blindly once you click the video, it’s a metric, you see those if you want access to the video.
If the content of the video has the guy saying “thanks xyz for sponsoring this raid shadow legends” that’s a contract between the guy doing the video and the sponsor, following metrics agreed between themselves, it has no ties with “the purpose of youtube” simply because… it’s not youtube.
Will there be people doing cheap content to get “easy” sponsor money? Sure but if the content suck you won’t watch it. It’s a loss just like if the motetization was following any other driver (as long as the driver is… watching the thing rather than not).
I wish there was a way to pay for just a single video
There totally is, just send them a low amount of money or do the hwole Youtube Premium thing.
It does matter and most people obviously give you ways to directly support them.
That’s not your opinion. Ads are, indeed, ads.
Not all ads are invasive soul seeking tracking nightmares and no, there are not “many ways” for content creators to do that full-time.
Daily reminder that SponsorBlock, unlike adiacent solutions (Like AdBlocks for example) is not necessarily “good”.
Explicit sponsorship inside a video is considered to be one of a few good solution to the issue of content creators being naturally subjected to death by starvation.
“Don’t you guys have phones?”
Also, I htought 99% of tablets connect to the mobile network using a SIMcard, but even if you rely only on wifi, see my previous quote.
Tablets can’t run mobile apps?
I didn’t give it access to my contacts and navigate it by familiarity with profile pictures and using “Open in WhatsApp”, an app that let’s you… open WhatsApp conversation from your contacts manually (I need it only for a new contact)
I use it daily, it works wihtout issues for me, I don’t know what these dudes are talking about.
Thanks for the heads up, yea I’m well aware of that, I use it to, well… sync, my phone pictures with my PC.
I will probably start with this approach and see where it leads me, thanks!
Docker configs, sensitive documents, pictures, a limited amount of video files…
/s to a degree.
It is not the only point when it comes to adopting technologies, when it comes to maximizing privacy, yes maximizing privacy is tautologically the only point.
