    Yeah we’re basically hurting their revenue by using Piped and other ways to bypass Google’s ads. They wouldn’t be profitable if everyone stopped watching those ads

        Yeah, they should provide thousands of gigiabits of video streaming to everyone for free. It’s our right!

          It’s not for free. They use your data. Also most of these ‘free’ videos are made by enthusiasts.

              Ah yes, because humans never want to share information, or show others something they’ve achieved or created. The only possible motivation could be money.

                That’s not what I’m saying, but these people choose to upload their content to YouTube specifically, so what’s your point?

                  That’s there’s not really another platform to upload to that you can easily share long form video content on, for free? I don’t understand your point now.
