I was watching a video on landscape mode on my phone on YouTube. And then when a wild midroll ad appears, the ad thinks it's a good idea to play a ultrawide-screen video inside a TikTok style vertical phone window, and then puts that in a widescreen video. The whole thing also got smaller to display the CTA at the right.

Which reminds me, I hate how YT ads on mobile try to forcibly cover up the entire screen. It's like seeing a billboard that suddenly expands to fill most of your vision. They didn't used to do that, instead they just took over the video portion of the screen, but you could keep browsing comments while the ad plays.

I imagine us taking the high seas is "inconsequential". Until it isn't at least, all that matter is quarterly earnings, the rest "is next quarter".

I suspect it's like video games, they don't give a shit if pay to win mechanics drive away interest for the game, they make more than enough off those who do pay. In the long run it will worsen the platform until eventually there will be a crisis (similar to some banana looking motherfucker on reddit), and the CEO of google Sundae Pichu is going to start cutting on pencils and printers at YouTube, while asking government for subsidies lest they slack off a chunk of their workforce and buyback they stock.

The fucking world we live in
