youtube’s been testing various ways of limiting access, both for downloaders and real users with adblockers most fucked up experiment being forced DRM for ALL videos, even those that are licensed as CC: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/12563 feels like it will only get worse from now on 🫠

If rolled out widely, this would make web browsers and third-party YouTube clients without a DRM license unusable for YouTube playback, download, etc. This would include almost all open-source web browsers and almost all third-party YouTube clients. Archive link to reddit post about this

    Better than being poor and delusional about being entitled to steal 🤣

    I honestly love the bootlicker tag. It tells me everything I need to know about your alignment with reality. You just want to be mad to argue on the Internet. Nothing based in reality to offer. A sad deplorable existence.

        Okay, but you have the expectations of them making it easy?

        Folks in here feel entitled to the easy of blocking ads while simultaneously decrying the value of the service and refusal to pay.

          I’ve never actually found it difficult to bypass the ads, despite their attempts. Literally, at least for now, you can use uBlock to block the warning lol

          life finds a way
