South Korea for anybody wanting to ship the article.

Edit: I'm keeping it as is.

It's for Kim, everyone else can pay for it.

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 5 points 11 months ago

Not where, with whom.

We ship this article with YouTube CEO Neal Mohan.

[–] columbus@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

Do people actually read the whole AI generated article just to find out the country name?

[–] nevernevermore@kbin.social 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I've been shipping South Korea and this article for years

[–] RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 11 months ago

Mmmh, South Korea and this article... so hot right now!

Use Revanced for your ad free YouTube needs.

[–] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Louis Rossmann launched a new app Grayjay, which is to follow artists across platforms. It's YouTube ad free, has another comments layer without YouTube monetization, allows downloads and they are working on sponsor block. It costs $10 because they do not sell your data, but it works without paying too because they are not assholes. But they are worth it to get the 10 bucks imo. He's a strong fighter for right to repair, one of Google, Samsung and Apple's biggest enemy. Grayjay.app is the website to download. He has a video on it on YouTube explaining everything.

Does anyone else get sketched out by louis rossmann?

[–] Chreutz@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

He's weird, but he has the right ideas.

[–] SirStumps@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

You know what I purchased that whenever I first saw it like 2 months ago and I forgot about it because it needed a little more polish I'll start using it again.

[–] KpntAutismus@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

i second this, more actual features for no extra money. (adblock, return youtube dislike, sponsorblock)

[–] NickwithaC@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Now if only there were a revanced for my TV...

[–] Beryl@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

If you have an Android TV or Android box hooked to it, there's SmartTube, which is pretty much reVanced for the big screen. It works great !

Same model as all ways. Put all free, people completely upload their info and relying on it, monetize what people free uploaded. Same fucking model as all the companies and not just for media. Example ChatGPT. This should be illegal worldwide.

[–] SitD@feddit.de 8 points 11 months ago (1 children)

the thing is that i get why they need money for their infrastructure after blowing up so much. but what really rubs me the wrong way is: they have studied how to butcher people's private data for 20 years. now they're really really good at it. can i trust that they suddenly abandon this practice in exchange for my money or are they going to double-dip? a massive mega corp like would never... or?

[–] TonyOstrich@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

That's where I am at as well. I would be more than happy to pay for YouTube Premium as I recognize it is not an insignificant undertaking, and I even think some of the algorithmic suggestions are good (though an option to turn them off maybe?). If I am paying for the service though then I think I should then become the customer, not the product, and should have some guarantees to that effect.

I'd also like to have a more clear idea of how much the service really costs. If it costs a lot to run, then just price it appropriately. Knock it off with this boil the frog bull shit and raising the cost every year or two.

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 2 points 11 months ago

The free version of ChatGPT is still the same version as it was a year ago

[–] Sneptaur@pawb.social 9 points 11 months ago

Slow news day in tech I guess.

[–] FlavoredButtHair@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Thankfully Firefox and adblocking is free.

[–] magic_lobster_party@kbin.social 5 points 11 months ago (2 children)

They will probably block “non-certified” browsers soon enough.

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I’d hope that would lead to FTC action, but that’s only if the republicans don’t win the presidency next year.

[–] ahriboy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 11 months ago

And also EU DMA/DSA actions

[–] chitak166@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Youtube's entire platform is built around dominance. It's the one-stop-shop for all "content creators."

They won't sacrifice that because it will make Youtube no longer synonymous with 'online video.'

[–] magic_lobster_party@kbin.social -1 points 11 months ago

Firefox is like 3% of all internet browsing. Probably even less on YouTube. They can sacrifice a little bit.
