I just dislike people making arguments that are really about their entitlement and try to pass it off as something else.
you could make some fair points, that youtube is essentially a monopoly and that locking some educational content behind a pay/adwall is unfairly disadvantageous to people with less money, but nope, your problem is that:
"How dare they ask us for money, why don't they ask us how much we want to pay? it's so unfair, why don't they just run their service for free??"
it's a bit whingy, innit?
I have covid so I have some free time to tire my brain out calling out whingy shit.
Sounding like you do want to argue about this. If you don't think this is a big deal then maybe stop nagging people over petty stuff.
