I actually had trouble finding that out (although I only looked for like, 15 minutes). It's apparently difficult to determine according to some tech websites. I do have this chart that says since 2017 YouTube ad revenue has been 7-11% of Google's global revenue but I don't know if that = profit. Decided to meme anyways because I have ads blocked on PC but still see them on my phone.
If you're on Android, ReVanced. And if you're on iOS, well get fucked or something, idk
Yeah I completely gave up on the app. Firefox with ublock is a blessing, internet in general is basically unusable on mobile without it.
In iOS you can use Yattee and link to an alternative Frontend. Works well for me.
I use adguard on ios, also a vpn btw, and blocks all ads in browser and blocks ads in yt videos in their app. Used yattee for a bit, but tbh I didn’t like the UX, then it stopped working so I switched
Seconded on this one. I use Yattee with Piped as my frontend, with an account as well, and it’s been pretty solid so far.
didn’t work for piped.video and yewtu.be. which front end are you using?
He explicitly told you to get lost or something, dude!
You just got me free music, I couldn't afford it anymore so I have to drop it. Thank you
I've been using revanced for a year and something happened in the past couple of weeks where it just refuses to work and keeps sayi go there's no internet connection :( I have uninstalled and reinstalled/patched things as per instructions and nothing.
On ios there's brave browser and firefox focus.
Hosting a streaming service is incredibly expensive. Especially at the scale of YouTube. I can imagine YouTube is costing far more for Google than Search itself.
My guess is that YouTube has never really been profitable, which is why they’re pushing users to buy Premium.
Youtube has always claimed that it doesn't turn a profit but I don't believe them. My reasoning is that if the server costs are more than the revenue today, then they're going to be worse tomorrow. A gorillian gigabytes of data are uploaded to that thing every nanosecond. A company can't get exponentially less profitable every second and still survive. And what else is there to prop it up? Google ad results? No way is Youtube not profitable. They're saying that to avoid tax.
get firefox with ublock origin. block that garbage on mobile too.
Just use any app like newpipe or pipepipe
Given the tech turnover rate at google (the rate at which they kill products) the answer is most probably yes.
