When people post YouTube links.. is there a cool open source way to watch it on mobile without going through youtube? Because when I click on a YouTube link and I'm on my phone and it immediately gives me an ad it's pissing me off like in a huge way.. is there a way to bypass ads without an ad blocker on my phone

You could pay for the service 🤷♂️
Users are already paying with their personal information. Paying for YouTube is like tipping your Landlord.
Video hosting is expensive.
Just as personal information is on a large scale. YouTube/Google/Alphabet chooses selling our information as their core business model. As far as I'm concerned, they "don't care" about the money they get from YouTube Premium.
YouTube runs at a loss still I believe? Low res is probably supportable, but 4k etc gets expensive.
I agree with you on that point: Video hosting (or more accurately: bandwidth) is extremely expensive. This is why YouTube is basically a monopoly, despite most of its users being annoyed with it (I presume).
And isolated, without the rest of Google and Alphabet, it may not be profitable, despite all of the ads it feeds us. But from my understanding, YouTube is yet another data aggregator Google uses to make money. Indirectly I bet YouTube is very valuable for Google, even if YouTube itself is not profitable.
You're call to live homeless in spite 🤷♂️
Why am I or would I be homeless? Because I don't tip my Landlord?
I'm not paying a shitty company for a shitty product
Yet you are using it 🤷♂️
YouTube is great you'd never pay for it.
I get my content, in a great app, plus yt music for my entire family for $120 a year. That's probably 400 hours worth of content for my entire family.
Good for you? Why are you so fucking pissed off at me? I'm just going to block you.. I don't have to justify my reasons on this planet for the way I am to you. If I don't want to pay for YouTube I don't have to pay for YouTube, and I'm still allowed to use it, get out of here.
No one is pissed at you. You just seriously over reacted
Calm down sir. You're acting like they just threw your dog down a well.
