Instead of just fighting TikTok, fueling the short video trend could undermine YouTube’s existing ad business.

    I might have to look into that. I do wonder how it could know when a segment is sponsored.

    I don’t care that much about the ads since we already have Premium so we don’t see the ads anyways.

      It’s crowdsourced and works quite well, been using it for the last year.

      Premium doesn’t skip the ads in the videos
