    They do random testing. I’ve received one of these a couple of times with unlock as well. Google/yt has not fully committed.

        Sometimes I have to use YouTube rawdog for work and it’s unusable, if I want to skip forward in the video to reach the solution to my problem I get an add every time I click the timeline.

        Yeah you and a lot of people. There’s a couple articles about it but essentially there’s some talk of pushback.

        And personally for me there are alternatives that people could use. While not a lot of people are on it, peertube is a viable alternative. I’ve watched a couple of small creators on it and it ha good performance. Just a very small audience.

        Makertube is one of my favorites.
