what the heck is with youtube popping up like 20 seconds before a video ends saying swipe for next video!? man thats annoying, esp during the slowmo part of a tutorial. its also bad for content creators wanting ppl to watch the whole video. not really sure who benefits from that feature. I’m sure there’s a way to disable it and ill look when i get back home later today. I’m just venting on the way out the door 😤 ---

I think the incessant ads are more annoying. I’ve taken to downloading the video before I watch. Solves the problem. ---

I quit using YT and most Google services months ago (for many reasons). I much prefer to support “alternative” platforms like Rumble and Odysee. If you need/want YT, check out NewPipe, FreeTube, PeerTube, etc. You’ll have to support the creators through other means, but they’re great ways to watch. > [@jhb8426](#): > > I think the incessant ads are more annoying. Remember when YouTube didn’t have ads? ---

> [@jhb8426](#): > > think the incessant ads are more annoying they would be, I’m sure. I’ve had youtube red for years since i started getting youtube music and its a bundle. it honestly takes someone mentioning the ads before i remember they exist. ignorance is bliss lol ---

The dang suggested video overlay that pops up in the last 15 seconds of a video is also super freaking annoying. Especially when the video has text or a detail they are showing off. You can’t close it, it just covers the content. ---

I had actually forgotten about that somehow. “Rate, comment, and subscribe” is still burned in my memory, though. Now there’s not even a dislike button, because it might hurt someone’s _feelings_ 🙄
