    be me.

    reading lemmy

    see yet again that YouTube is blocking ads

    see the entitlement in the comments that seem to think YouTube should be both free of ads and free to use and that Google should subsidize it for some reason

    post my copy-paste comment reiterating that YouTube is a business and not a charity

    see comments from idiots that attack the commenter instead of actually trying to argue against the point or come up with any sane solution or any attempt to advance the conversation

    realise people just want the labour of others for free

      It’s mostly that the multi billion dollar profit organisation didn’t need to do this. Where does that money go? Even though it’s over the back of the labour and time of both the content creators and people watching.

      Google is doing 60 billion dollar profit fine. Thanks. And not paying proper tax either, lol. It’s pure extraction of labour value.

      Get mad at that.
