I been on the internet since the 90s. I want to know what people are seeing. A commercial here or there keeps me in the loop about what is being pushed.
1 hour unskippable ads tells me a lot about what is going on, unfortunately.
I want to know what’s going on in the world.And that includes knowing what advertisers are pushing down our throats.Political ADS ads for products, things like that.How they’re going about it.
I care too much and it’s beginning a problem in my personal life
Just do that once in a while. You don’t need to subject yourself to ads every time you watch YouTube. I would say, once a week do a watch session without an ad blocker if you want to be in the loop.
There is already too much going on in the world and things trying to claim your attention. There are things we can’t control. Save your energy for that. Turn off web ads, use the uBlock Origin extension in your web browser. Try it for a week as a digital detox. If you really miss the ads you can always go back.
You’ve been here for two years and haven’t installed a blocker yet? That’s almost impressive
I wonder how they managed that, I’ve been here about a year and a half and I use Linux now, lol.
I also gave it another try after many years lol

I see where you’re coming from but meanwhile I’m here using crowd sourced addons to even skip embedded video sponsorships.
Why do you need to be in the loop on ads?

I don’t have a solution, but definitely find a way to care less. We only have so much time on this rock, so we might as well enjoy it.
