 a little part of me dies with every youtube ad i watch 
 YouTube ads have gone too far. 
 Especially when it a microstrategy and Michael Saylor scam. Never seen a good YT ad. 
 You ain’t got no ad-block ?

youtube recognises it and forces you to lose it

 I just paid for the annual subscription of YouTube premium, with no ads..
I did it mostly for the music videos (YouTube music), but also enjoying no ads in general, a different experience..

- If you purchase the plan from your PC, Not iPhone!, it’s 30% cheaper.
- If you get the annual plan it is even cheaper….. 
 does vpn location adjust price? 
 Been very tempted to do this for the same reasons. Then I discovered that the DuckDuckGo browser enables you to watch YouTube videos ad free. But not the same user experience as YouTube itself. 
 i like their ui/ux

i dislike their algo 
 Yep 
 Then dont watch them...  theres gotta be dozens of ways 
 "I'm seeking an investor with a mission to invest in dreams and projects to change the world for a better future. I plan to initially invest $5 million in my well-being to improve my quality of life and focus on the project. Additionally, an additional $3 million will be invested, totaling an initial investment of $8 million. Of these, $3 million will be dedicated entirely to the project for the development of a cheap and accessible framework, including the development of a mechanical skeleton to help people walk, mechanical robots, and other utilities. I guarantee to deliver the prototype within 2 years, with additional support from the investor."
