Ad Blocker [NOT AN ADVERTISEMENT]

Unread post by Vincere »

Hello,

I wanted to know if you use an ad blocker?
I haven't seen a youtube add from my laptop since I got one, unfortunately I am not aware of ad blocker for smartphones.
I am saying this because I really don't want to be responsible to give $0.0001 to youtubers that I actually dislike but I want to watch.

The ones I am using is https://adblockplus.org/ for Chrome.
This is not an advert, it may sound like one :) but I just wanted to share this important information with you.
It works great removing ads on YT and all the other websites.

Take care!

Yes, I realised as I was writing that it sounds very promotional :D
I call it my small part in making DailyMoneyLosses for BM.

I imagine if you watched the video on Chrome on your phone instead of the YouTube app, the ads would also be blocked.

Unfortunately that is not the case.
From Google: Chrome apps and extensions are currently not supported on Chrome for Android. We have no plans to announce at this time.

Ding hey? Auto-correct? Or expression I never heard, English is not my native language.

I think that YTbers get their money based on the ads watched/clicked by people on their videos. People stop watching ads, they don't get any money.

I've heard (from Shay Carl) that if you SKIP the ad, YTers DON'T GET the revenue. IDK, though. I always skip solely because of impatience.

THERE WE GO.
Yea that's correct and that's what I thought as well. Skip the ads they YTbers get nothing and that's exactly what I want for some of them, they don't deserve to get tons of money and still complain about their life. Some of them deserve it but ads are just annoying.

I use Adblocker on my MacBook. If you have an iPhone that's Jailbroken you can download something similar I believe
