With YouTube blocking adblockers, I found myself using YT a lot less. Every time I click on a video, it gets blocked. Then I realize I didn’t really care about watching the video. It felt like I caught myself before lighting the cigarette. I welcome the change and it has helped free up my mental space for other stuff.
There is a discussion on Hacker News, but feel free to comment here as well.
we have a youtube demonitization policy at our house. sorry google, nothin personal, its just our policy.
so, usage flatlined.
