atrielienzA Novel Approach to Yotube Ads
Everyone’s hating on this approach but I think it’s nice that we have other options. I’m sure Ublock is going to come out on top of this cat and mouse game YouTube is playing with them, but if YouTube manages to temporarily disable Ublock I’ll look into this solution. Thanks!
Google will give up eventually. They’re definitely burning more money than they would gain from winning the battle
They give on everything else all the time. I wonder if expanding their ad business is the one exception though. They ran out of new users and already pack videos full of ads. Forcing them on people who block them is the only thing left for them to attempt as they seek to continue perpetual growth.
linearchaosUnfortunately the videos with ads absolutely packed through them are largely due to the creators choosing the settings for extra monetization.
Ramόn Sánchez Content creators can choose how many ads show, if at all? I did know that, thank you.
Youtube just made changes that prevent creators from choosing to only allow skippable ads. Now youtube chooses what type of ads to run at the start and end of a video.
The only choice creators have is to enable or disable mid-roll ads, and where to place them (but the default is to allow youtube to make those choices too)
