When people post YouTube links, is there a cool open source way to watch it on mobile without going through youtube, firefox, or downloading adblockers?

  • I agree with you on that point: Video hosting (or more accurately: bandwidth) is extremely expensive. This is why YouTube is basically a monopoly, despite most of its users being annoyed with it (I presume).

    And isolated, without the rest of Google and Alphabet, it may not be profitable, despite all of the ads it feeds us. But from my understanding, YouTube is yet another data aggregator Google uses to make money. Indirectly I bet YouTube is very valuable for Google, even if YouTube itself is not profitable.

  • Just as personal information is on a large scale. YouTube/Google/Alphabet chooses selling our information as their core business model. As far as I'm concerned, they "don't care" about the money they get from YouTube Premium.

  • I meant that in the way of mobile gaming become more feasible and widespread.

    Oh, I see.

    I’d say gaming on desktop is the traditional experience wouldn’t you?

    Yes, I agree. I am getting the impression you are sensing/expecting a shift away from desktops due to the widespread mobile gaming you mentioned. Maybe I am too old fashioned and conservative in that sense but for me gaming should ideally be done on a desktop. Furthermore, I believe that gaming is best experienced and most desirable on a desktop.

  • Users are already paying with their personal information. Paying for YouTube is like tipping your Landlord.

    • What is the "right" thing to do when a website tells me to download Chrome?

    Jump

  • I'm not a FE dev but I know some JS basics. I imagine the site uses some blink (the chromium engine) specific features or css.

    Sometimes i also think it's for tracking reasons and they deliberately discourage other browsers

  • Yeah like "Just add a simple button here". Yeah of course, the button is not the difficult part.

    Its like they think we just tell the computer what they asked us to do and we're done.
