Adblock/revanced are working. Google’s ad revenue is getting squeezed and so they need to shoehorn more ads everywhere to get the same revenue levels, since so many people never see the ads.

Keep using them. You’re making business really difficult for scummy Google.

Adblock, maybe a noticeable fraction on desktop, but Revanced users are within a rounding error of the total users, surely?

I feel like both populations are now dwarfed by the numbers watching YT on their TV's built-in apps, which throw demented amounts of ads at you.

I’m dating this person and we were watching YT and she didn’t have any ad blocker up and I was fucking blown away
