@TheMadPirate @sjw @slash I remember them not loading at all because proprietary plugin that was not available for Linux, and when it was, it was a 32-bit version, and then eventually they released a 64-bit version that I didn't want to run so I made use of a separate browser profile and then it crashed the browser half the time. So I didn't look at YouTube. Then for a while it was HTML5 and no Flash and no scoldy SJW stuff getting recommeded at me and no outraged anti-SJW stuff getting recommended at me and no "MY CHANNEL HAS BEEN DEMONETIZED" videos, and it was fine for a couple of years and now it's shit again and half the time it throttles me and it's all ads and everything interesting on it is banned for wrongthink.

If you want a vision of the future, it is a DRM'd boot, recommending advertiser-friendly content that contains paid promotions at a human face, forever.
