I’m new to Lemmy and therefore exploring different instances, you could say. I myself am a pirate and I do it for watching purposes (this much is pretty obvious from my username). I’m also an otaku and somewhat of a privacy consious user.

    Yeah, it’s generally not a profitable business. But not when people make accounts, use those accounts to watch content and also comment and like-dislike content. They track your every move. They’re an ad company and that’s how they make a profit. I would have paid a subscription for the service if they were a honest company and didn’t invade other people’s privacy without their permission.

    Look man, there are a lot of ways to use YouTube and have a great experience. You don’t need to pay money to them just to have a good experience. Just use YouTube in Brave Browser or Firefox with uBlock Origin enabled or maybe with an ad-block enabled on your device 🤷 Well, just my suggestion. You’re free to do as you like
