If they are a "disgusting company" that "doesn't care about their creators" why are you still utilizing it!
You can't have your cake and eat it too. Its incredibly disingenuous to say all this, then go on to watch hours of YouTube a week.. Sounds like mental gymnastics to justify your continued enjoyment of their platform while sticking it to them.
I dislike Google, but damn sure I'm paying for youtube premium. I swear under my breath every month when they charge my card, but at the end of the day the value is there for me and my family, not sure what else to say....
I have my cake and eat it too. No ads, all the content creators I enjoy, I actually get notified of new uploads, and none of YouTube’s garbage. I get an even better experience than YT Premium for free, no ads included. It’s better for the creators I enjoy as well, because I pay even more than Premium in Patreons every month.
And if you bothered to read anything I said, you’d understand why I put up with YouTube. Content creators I enjoy haven’t adopted other, superior platforms. More and more swap to alternatives like LBRY, which is great, but unfortunately not enough to completely replace it. Though I never did say I watched “hours of YouTube a week”, in fact its increasingly losing prevalence in my life as I return to reading books.
Additionally, if you supposedly “dislike” Google, than why are you supporting them? Why are you defending the solution to a problem they themselves created? If I’m playing “mental gymnastics”, then it sounds like you’re training for the mental olympics with how far you’re defending your own purchasing habits.
You need to cut out the abusive lover that is YouTube out of your life, they’re genuinely not worth it. You can do better.
