AFAIK, it’s still possible to upload content that can be demonitized if you really don’t care about monetization. The video will not be deleted, it will just be demonitized. However, creators don’t want to get demonitized so they bow down. There is still freedom just as long it’s not some extreme stuff.
There were so much more websites back then. Now my google search result is mostly reddit


Does the ublock addon also do the cat and mouse game with Google when google patches ad blocking with ublock?


Unfortunately, you need monetization to keep going. If creators didn’t, they wouldn’t have folded to YouTube monetization rules and just kept posting whatever they wanted. Basically, YouTube demonitezes then crrators have folded to just censoring their videos instead of pushing back because of money.


Maybe add Bilibili, TikTok, Facebook, and Dailymotion to the list. Yes, they also have ads but they are not that strict about ad blockers.


You can just set it to desktop mode. It happens when scrolling on mobile. Or, just stop using reddit altogether


Sad, i forgot i bought reddit stock. Imma sell now.
I haven’t tried yet so i am asking. I currently only use brave because I know they patch whatever google does to evade adblock
