And yet ppl get ads with premium cuz youtube says fuck you

[–] halcyoncmdr@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago) (2 children)

IIRC that was specifically related to YouTube testing out a new Premium tier that allowed some ads, but also cost less, and only in specific markets.

Not everywhere, and not regular Premium subscriptions, unlike how most posts try to make it sound, including yours. But don't let the facts get in the way.

Were they testing those ads on users that paid for an ad free premium or were they testing on users that bought a lower tier?

...for now.

Let's keep that in mind.

I don’t get any ads, what are you talking about?

[–] BigDaddySlim@lemmy.world 23 points 21 hours ago

Premium ads popped up a bit ago, there were several posts and articles about it. Apparently they're also testing different tiers of premium like Netflix.

[–] bassomitron@lemmy.world 0 points 21 hours ago (3 children)

They might be referring to people who have it occur due to a technical problem (needing to clear their cache or something). Other than that, tons of my friends and coworkers have Premium and they've never complained of ads, so I don't think it's a normal thing that occurs frequently.

[–] IkarusHagen2@feddit.org 9 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago) (1 children)

No, there was an article which said that youtube will put ads into premium which they consider important, in that article it was about another product of youtube. Gonna try to find that article

Bro I don’t speak German but yea sure, I believe you. That does sound pretty shit, and I’d be pretty pissed if that happened, yea.

Most browsers can translate:D

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 4 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

I believe they're trying out different tiers of premium in certain regions (not the US). Lower tier premium has ads.

[–] Aermis@lemmy.world -1 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Lol why are you getting down voted? Jeez lemmy users are sensitive about paying for an entertainment service.

[–] Soup@lemmy.world 0 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Youtube has been free for so long that people forget that hosting all those videos costs money. They’ll pay for so many streaming services but if you make Youtube anything but a free, ad-free paradise they lose it.

[–] Aermis@lemmy.world 2 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

I guess. I never had nor will ever pay for premium, but isn't there premium content? How's that any different than paying for patreon videos of content creators? YouTube just consolidated it.

[–] halcyoncmdr@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago

There's premium content, no ads, the creator gets paid significantly more for your Premium view, and bundled YouTube Music.

[–] Soup@lemmy.world 2 points 18 hours ago

Yea, and while I don’t use it you also get Youtube Music bundled in.
