Ok hear me out: an add-on that promotes “Watching less youtube!!!”. Isn’t that genius? It could be 50/50. 15 seconds of blackscreen for people like you who enjoy starring at it, and 15 seconds of “less screen time” promotion. That way you are frequently reminded that you could do better things with your time. Example : “You have starred at a black screen for XX minutes today. Did you know that a basic ukulele cost around 30$ and you can learn playing by investing as low as 30 minutes per day?” On top of it, I will ad a functionality that let you customize the color of the blackscreen! What do you think, are we getting somewhere or what?
Ok hear me out: If I am downloading an add-on for the explicit purpose of watching youtube, then I am not interested in being told by the add-on not to use it. If I want to watch less youtube I will, and I know this sounds novel: I will watch less youtube.
If I want helpful life tips I will go look for helpful life tips on my own. If I want to be told youtube sucks then I already know youtube sucks. I don’t understand why the fuck, when the entire purpose of me installing an add-on is to block a site from showing me things I didn’t ask for, you keep trying to convince me to have the add-on show me things I did not ask for. The defeats the entire fucking purpose of me getting it in the first place.
I have stated this as clearly as I can multiple times. I am done trying to explain it any further.
Ok got you. So you’d rather stare at a black screen for 30 seconds every 5 minutes than switch to an alternative where you can have exactly the same service, but without advertising and where control is based on the user rather than a multi-billion dollar corporation. So you want youtube and nothing else, but you refuse to support youtube. Basically, we’re back at good old advertising, were people will pick up their phone during a break and wait for the program to resume. But you don’t see things you didn’t ask for! One last thing, did you know that “Vinegar is perhaps the best way to clean a toilet tank, as it’s naturally acidic. It removes lime and calcium deposits, and it’s a natural antibacterial. Pour two cups of vinegar into the tank, allow to sit for an hour, scrub, and flush to rinse.” You’re welcome!!
No. I want to watch the thing I specifically decided to watch, and not what someone else wants to advertise to me.
