If I were blocking the ads, I wouldn't be aware of how bad it's gotten.
Their story reveals that all these people hating on YouTube are actually just selfish children doing mental gymnastics.
Their savior came, disrupted YouTube pretty deeply, then went bankrupt.
Nebula might have a shot at breaking the stranglehold, and I support them, but it remains to be seen if they can do it. A lot of content creators would have to move there, and there's a lot of random stuff (recorded lectures, video instructions, music, etc) that probably never will because it doesn't fit their premium original content model.
The whole point of Nebula is NOT to become another YT, it's meant to be curated source of media.
Nebula has no shot. It has a <1% conversion rate. Creators make almost nothing from it compared to their yt channel.
My point is that the fundamental problem with the Internet and Internet services is the users entitlement to free things. The Internet would be a dramatically better place if it worked for users and not for advertisers. Vid.me was dramatically better, but it died learning that 99% of people in threads like this is full of shit and actually just entitled.
