I'm pretty shocked by this as well.

I always thought that America was on the ready to stand up against fascism and tyranny.

I guess they aren't.

Yes!

If you have a Linux OS on a PC then Freetube is a terrific desktop app.

You can import your subscriptions from YT there.

If it's only ads that you hate then Revanced mobile app is the way. Unless you are on iPhone - then it won't work. It's Android only.

Interesting you mention this. I guess it's more common than I realized.

The literal reason I looked around and came here a few days ago is because of exactly this.

Someone posted a picture of a blue hat that said "Is he dead yet" with the caption that is crazy the whole planet knows who is referring to.

I commented that the planet will be a better place when it happens.

Instant ban for a week.

The bot banning me stated "Threats and violence" as the rule.

So ya...I'm not going back to that.

We know....we all sadly knew it all along.
