YouTube channel delete

Post by Ixneigh »

Ive decided to delete my YouTube channel because the platform seems to be getting less and less usable. I’ll be trying the Rumble video site for now. The only reason I’m mentioning this here is I haven’t and won’t be archiving or saving anything on the YouTube channel, so if there is anything you might want to rewatch or save, you have a chance. All the best

I’ll try posting some stuff on rumble. The upload process seems easier than on YouTube.

I suppose an alternative is to just leave it archived and post new stuff somewhere else. I’m got my knickers in a wad over the massive amount of ads these days, is all... I mean it’s just blatant greed at this point. (On googles part)

Keep the channel archived. It has value.

Agreed about youtube ads are excessive. I broke down and bought Youtube Premium because I watch more vlogs than anything else.

What's your channel name? Wouldn't want to miss any M26 content before it's gone.

I've started using a Chrome extension called "Pie Adblock". It's pretty great at blocking ads in general, but also blocks ads within YouTube videos. Try it out!
