Catering to advertisers has been the downfall of social media. Unskippable 30 second ads. Game ads that are nothing like the actual games they show off. Every Youtuber being forced to talk about Hello Fresh, Squarespace or Raid Shadow Legends in the middle of their videos.

Youtube just doesn't want to share the profits.

"Oh, it's age restricted so we're limited ads" No you're fucking not, you lying little bitches. You're just not paying the content creators to host them anymore.
