Why is YouTube forcing us to watch ads? I have been having trouble watching YouTube using the Brave browser, which doesn't have an ad-blocker extension; it is built-in. It's so dumb. I have to watch ads to enjoy a video. I don't want to see ads. Please stop making us watch ads to watch a video. I know you need to have ads for Revenue, but it's just really ridiculous. Maybe have ads on the side, or be muted? I don't know, just not force us to watch ads while trying to watch a video. https://preview.redd.it/pec5tj8nm18e1.png?width=903&format=png&auto=webp&s=7be26e1ebbccd4130c7288c8e6b89ba59f01d225 Not... 3 10 replies

Teacher plays sml for kids in class I'm a substitute teacher, typically a para in a special ed class, such as today, it was elementary 3-5. A student was trying to pull up the Jeffy song on youtube, I'd only seen maybe one or two videos, and it's been years, but I am a little familiar with it, and know it has some very innapropriate content for kids, which obviously I can't control at home, but in class, I wouldn't allow it. However when I exited out of it, the main teacher got onto me, asking... 5 1 replies
Comments deleted This is more of just a complaint but has anyone else had the issue of your comments getting deleted for seemingly no reason (checked and have no words I can possibly think would be offensive) while ones that are super messed up stay up? This has happened to me a lot over the years and I used to think I just used a flagged word or too long of a comment but I just did one and someone else had a way longer comment. Itβs really frustrating especially when... 4 4 replies
How is Drew Binsky such a popular travel vlogger? Where do I begin? * Virtually 0 cultural awareness, and I'm not referring to his 'older' videos. Watching his "Entering the Slum that Japan Doesn't Want You to See" video where he interviews homeless people asking them "what's the worst part of living there?". * Tries to 'address stereotypes' but doesn't delve any deeper than asking stereotyped people what they think of their stereotypes. * I doubt he compensates any of the people he exploits in his videos. He is building a fortune off of the stories of other... 3 1 replies
