    > Do you block YouTube on your network so you don't see content from that platform? I'd wager you don't.

    I don't block YouTube, I just don't use any of their official frontends. There are plenty of alternatives in this space[1]. This might not work for everyone, but I get a much better UX with these tools. Not seeing ads is one benefit, but it's also about not being a participant in training algorithms that effectively cause psychological damage.

    > I am pretty sure you pay for things that bring value or make thing easier for you in life

    Of course. And I happily support content creators who don't rely on advertising or Google itself. I just refuse to be forced into a corrupt business model.

    Anyway, I didn't mean to antagonize you, so apologies if my response came across that way.
