    Too be honest I was fine with seeing an ad every few videos. But at some point it became unskippable ads before , during and after a video.

      Ads got too aggressive, people made adblockers, ads got more aggressive because of lost revenue, almost everyone starts using adblockers.

      They did it to themselves, people were content with simple ads on a page, it’s once they started interfering with the content and access of it that they became a problem.

      What boils my blood the most is how manipulative marketing is. The number of worthless ass jingles I remember from the 90’s from companies I’ve never purchased anything from is ridiculous.
