Commercials weren't every 45 seconds and you weren't forced to pay more to avoid said ad which honestly, you could just ignore, but everything is just awful and I hate it here

Edit: didn't realize a half awake comment would have so much traction. Thanks y'all

Also, we transitioned to streaming services to get away from having to see commercials.

Man, I miss when YouTube was just everyday people make stream of consciousness videos and random content with their heart, instead of these mass produced sponsored videos filled to the brim with ad breaks

They still exist but you don't watch them.

It was only like last year that reddit threw a fit when YouTube was pushing new youtubers with low view counts instead of mainly what people were subbed to.

Literally more content like you are talking about now than ever before and you still have all the old stuff.
