I just went to yt's front page, which I haven't done in a long while (usually use NewPipe or use a direct link). There is a LOT of garbage on there. I mean, holy crap! It's not the creators' fault, I know. The Algorithm decides, and they must appease The Algorithm. Still, though. And, now, this timer bs for the 2% who use adblockers?
