I'm using premium free for a month, by that time, an alternative will have been uncovered.

I have a 2 month free trial of Premium. Guess I'll cancel after that because $13.99 a month is ridiculous. I certainly hope this strategy flops and Youtube reconsiders.

There's a general expression that if you build a 10 foot wall someone will build an 11ft ladder.

Heh, ugh, I'm glad I gave Spotify a try. So far, it's been pretty good. Better than trying to deal with all this mess while working on NaNoWriMo, for sure.

BTW, uBlock origins still working fine on FireFox for me. It started blocking me on Firefox, but clearing the uBlock cache and re-downloading the filters seems to have fixed it for now.

People on the uBlock subreddit already figured out a filter to add to force load the page immediately

Good explanation on how Google's admitted to this idiocy of the Firefox throttling

Funny thing is I haven't even downloaded the workaround yet and if there's any throttling it isn't noticeable at all. But I have really fast fiber optic internet. Maybe it's one of those things that's only noticeable on slower wired internet speeds or wifi.

I've only recently returned to youtube and I'm still using Firefox and only noticed a slowdown once that a refresh took care of right away. The only sad thing is Seth Meyers is no longer accessible on youtube for Canadians. The jerks.

Oh it's the standard this is not accessible in your country. There are still old videos available but basically anything from the past couple weeks was telling me it wasn't made available in my country. Looking at it, they have corrections but 95% of content is completely missing.

Ah ok, I don't watch him, but I looked it up and got a compilation video of John Oliver, it's old, so maybe that's why it worked. Canadian rights are all f***ed up always, you know that. Something must have expired with the Canadian rights to his show.

It just took me by surprise because I've been watching his show for years. I'll figure something out.
