If I can pay to remove ads I will. Next is ad blocking. If I can’t do that, I won’t use your service and pirate your shit.

You want the platform to have an option to remove in video ads?

I want to be able to pay to remove ads, yes. I won’t use a service that won’t let me remove ads.

That’s the seek/fast forward button though. Or did you want the platform to be super hostile to it’s creators by automatically removing any sponsor spots in the video?

Oh, I see what you mean. Sponsored ads. Nah, I either ignore those or skip through them. Somehow I don’t find them as frustrating.

Yeah, so far those are generally acceptable. If they ever get out of control tho… it’ll be on the creators accepting them. And then those creators will hopefully lose their audience.

If YouTube ever decides to allow for the locking of seeking in selected sections of the timeline, you’ll know we are on the darkest timeline.
