    I fear more that YouTube’s harder push on forcing ads to users will result in a user-base exodus to Rumble.

    The amount of comments I’ve seen on various YT videos about how YouTube is breaking adblockers and forcing ads on users while making it a TOS Violation, where the comment says something like “I’ll just move to rumble, lol”, is worrying.

        Rumble is functionally on par with YouTube in terms of video player and not having ads.

        But Rumble is a Fascist cesspool filled with people who ran from YouTube when they implemented such controversial rules as “don’t say racial slurs” and “don’t spread misinformation.”.

        Rumble has been funded by mostly Right Wingers and an agreement with Trump.
