I’ve been boycotting ubisoft, EA, blizzard, and the like for years. 🤷‍♂️

(I mean, technically I’ve been avoiding denuvo malware, microtransactions, always online DRM bullshit, and the like, plus bad and / or uninteresting games… but that’s effectively equivalent to boycotting those assholes.)

Fuck, I’m old. :(

No it’s not.

I mean, maybe it’s trying, I don’t know, but I’m not even trying to keep ublock origin up to date (maybe it updates itself in the background?) and I haven’t noticed any difference (or ads) other than the normal progressive enshittification of both platform and channels, and I’m pretty certain I live in the world… EDIT: And before anyone asks, I am logged in, I mostly use YouTube through the subscriptions page, so being logged in doesn’t seem to be causing any problems for me either.
