I accidentally watched a YouTube video on a browser without blocking. It started with an ad. I thought I'd just endure it this time. Then another ad. OK, just this time then. Suddenly, another ad in the middle of the video. I gave up. Who'd have the patience to sit through this?
Then there's Google's habit of completely ignoring the browser's language settings so I have to sit though ads I don't even understand.
I used to occasionally watch YouTube on my lunch break when I would go into the office. I loved getting ads in Spanish, the office was in Greenville,SC not a large Spanish native population. I have premium on my account but don't like signing in personal account on work machines.
Ad blocker?
That is actually ideal
I had to tailor my do not recommend and not interested in this subject clicks until I was left with the one advertiser that I'm actually interested in, and that's basically low voltage communication mux devices...
That feature still works for you? I used to be able to skip ads on the ad by blocking them. Now the ad just finishes playing AND pops up again during the next ad break.
What I think is so unfair is that if I actually sit through one ad I don't get rewarded and fast forwarded to the video, no. I'll get a second ad that, if I am lucky, I can skip after 5 additional seconds. Or it's an unskippable one. That's not fair. I could have skipped the first one but I gave you that, I gave you that time of my life, now give me something back!
