![]() ![]() But when the big youtubers getting the lion’s share of traffic are living so luxuriously, I don’t feel like they need my sympathy for it. I can sympathize for those who are struggling, especially when google chooses to promote popular channels over them (this is one of my major annoyances with the platform BTW). Google only needs the popular channels and wouldn’t you know it those are already making good money. It feels harsh and unkind to actually say it, but they’re not that important to youtube. ![]() Of course I know the invisible channels on youtube make a pittance. While advertisers will judge me for wanting to block their ads, many of them are guilty of filling our lives with so many damn ads that the audience becomes desperate to block them in order to reduce to level of noise in our lives.Ī lot of those creators are doing much better than I am as a developer, haha. And it’s not like the content gets better…just more interruptions. To me, the biggest problem with ads isn’t that they exist, but that they keep getting worse. Internet streaming is going the same way, not only with ads on the platform, but increasing ads are in the content itself. The internet without adblocking is just awful. I used to buy & read more magazines but over time there was a huge inflation in the amount of ink dedicated to ads and that became a huge turnoff. Even with the channels and services you pay for there are more and more commercial interruptions displacing content. While we are talking about the web here, it always follows the same pattern regardless of medium: Radio, TV, and cable ads that used to be reasonable have just gotten out of hand. The thing that really turned me off is that advertising starts less intrusively but keeps progressing towards a sludge pit of incessant annoyance. At this point, using Chrome is self-inflicted. According to the revised schedule, Google will remove them from the Chrome Web Store on January 2024.Ĭhrome is an advertising delivery platform first and foremost, and anyone with even a hint of foresight and a disdain for ads should’ve switched to Firefox years ago. Although Google remains on track to ditch old extensions, developers and customers gained one more year for using and supporting Manifest V2-based extensions. In a new Chrome Developers blog post, the company describes an updated timeframe for migrating from Manifest V2 to Manifest V3. Google initially wanted to disable Manifest V2 extensions in Chrome in January 2023 but has now decided to revise its plans. Although Manifest V3 promises increased safety and “peace of mind,” developers argue that the new rules hurt innovations, decrease performance, and cripple content blockers without giving much better security. You may have to select a menu option or click a button.Last year, Google announced plans to phase out Manifest V2-based browser extensions in favor of new Manifest V3 policies.
