  • I don’t think that’s necessarily the case: Google knows as well as I do that a total crackdown would give governments like the European Union and United States more ammo for antitrust lawsuits.

    They do not care, never have, never will. Cost of operation.

    It would also be a motivator for more people to switch browsers, which would weaken Google’s browser monopoly.

    Not enough even care that would make noticable difference in market share.

    A lot of people were upset 23 years ago when Windows ME removed real mode DOS, too.

    And they all stopped using it, right? Right?

    The new Declarative Net Request API is still a downgrade in capability compared to the older API, but the feature gap has closed significantly.

    Chrome now allows extensions to include 100 rule lists, with up to 50 lists active at once. There are also additional filtering options, including an option to have case-insensitive rules, which cuts down on duplicates in filter lists. The maximum number of filter rules now varies by use case — an extension can now have up to 30,000 dynamic rules (filters downloaded by the extension) if they are deemed as “safe” (block, allow, allowAllRequests or upgradeScheme), an additional 5,000 other types of dynamic requests, and more filters included in the extension package.

    for context, EasyList is just one of the lists enabled by default in uBlock Origin and other ad blockers, and it has over 75,000 rules.

    Can you math? Feature gap almost same as before.








  • People expect edited videos from content creators these days.

    They do not, look how popular meme compilation are.

    Even someone filming a hobby in their home shop will get barked at for having bad audio quality, if, this week for once, they forgot to charge the batteries on their wireless Rode lavalier mic.

    Hater will hate, welcome to the internet.

    If you’re fine watching unedited, 5-10 minute videos that can be churned out with next to no effort, all good. I’m really into 40-90 minute long videos and personally view YouTube as an alternative to obtain the content type I prefer, but I’d rather not sacrifice quality.

    This type of content is impossible to make without financial support,

    Also, are we really comparing the hosting expenses of fucking YouTube with static 90s fan pages?

    There were much edited 40-90 minute video before there were ad on youtube. There were high quality page long essay on internet before youtube exist. Do not need ad or revenue or money support to get your content.

    In 90s people did thing because passion. Now because passion and money. Still can make thing only because passion, never got impossible.
