There are a ton of of new solo female mobile living channels, that are actually legit. They are a dime a dozen now though. I don't understand how this person in particular makes a living though, since a lot of the newer channels have pretty low followings. Mobile living is probably my favorite genre on youtube, or travel in general.

last night. Guess what? I just opened up all the videos I want to see - in different tabs -
signed out and refreshed the page and BOOM - videos play WITHOUT ADS!! Cuz I ain't

Ads don't play on videos which are embedded.
Meaning you can post it here then watch the video from your post.
That said, I am sure they'll find a way to fix that.
But it does explain why sometimes I find massively high view videos that disallow embedding on other sites...
I always wondered why, and it's because ads don't play on embedded videos, and they want every last dime of that ad money...
Kinda gross IMO. Besides, basically no one embeds videos in sites outside of YouTube, it's absolutely a tiny fraction.
I am still boycotting, but I found out Shorts don't show ads on YT so that's cool. Neither do regular vids from small/unmonetized channels.
Man I was SHOCKEDDDD by how many ads are actually on YT, I can't believe THIS is what people have been seeing the entire time, it's WILD.
They're fucking EVERYWHERE, pasted all over the damn site, and inside of videos like every 2 minutes.
It's very weird to me... it's intolerable and I'm surprised people have actually been putting up with this shit.
It changes the whole vibe of the site into a sheeple TV kinda feel. Gross, lmao!
But yeah, if there's a video I REALLY wanna watch, I embed it in a post and just preview the post and watch it on the preview page.

It's like we were using and experiencing an entirely different site than the rest of the world was this entire time.

If I had to see ads on YouTube, I wouldn't have spent years watching YouTube. That simple. It just never would have happened.

But I'm glad it did TBH because I have massively fucking enjoyed every single video I've ever fucking watched, like sucking the juice out of a delicious peach, my dudes. I have no shame. I have deeply, thoroughly fucking enjoyed myself. Or, I guess technically, I've enjoyed other people. Lmao.

And there are weirdos out there who HATE me because of that, I shit you not.
They totally hate the fact that I have had so much intense, insanely hardcore enjoyment just doing what the fuck I want (and sharing it on this site).
I can only assume they're jealous, joyless fucks who don't experience one ounce of happiness in their everyday lives.
Luckily that ain't my fucking problem, lmao, sucks to be them.

They're rotten nasty fucks and it reflects in every aspect of their lives... it's a THEM problem, and they wanna take it out on YOU, and anyone else who is happy. Nasty gross evil fucks, lmao. Don't be bitter, be better.

But now that I know how many ads are laced throughout videos from YTers I used to regularly watch and really enjoyed...
I'm low key turned off and don't see a lot of them the same way. Maybe that's unfair, I dunno. Cuz they haven't changed, I did.

I mean you can't blame them for trying to make money... there's nothing wrong with that, and I'm sure they're still as good as I felt like they were all along.
But for the people who disallow embedding on other platforms? Lol, straight up FUCK them.

Or make your own damn site and post/watch them from there...

YouTubers themselves have found a workaround for that too, now I see what they were doing...
They'll put the ads directly into the video, especially if they're someone whose videos tend to get embedded elsewhere a lot.
None of that shit ever made sense or clicked with me before, but now it does.

If you disallow embeds, you alienate potential viewers who may have found you from an embedded video... so the greed actually shoots them in the foot instead of helping. That's my opinion.

Wow, didn't know that! Thanks!! I'll have to try that next time I'm logged in on YT.

She's not ugly, she's just too smart.
If she had been dumber, she'd have been in love with herself.
I love that her 'About' on the YT page says "Not dead, just living the good ugly life!" lmfaolol.
Agh...

Soooo, pretty sure I was wrong about this. Lol.
It occurred to me that perhaps the only reason the vids play ad-free on this page is because I have AdBlock enabled for my own site, lmfaolol!!!?!??!?!?!
Sorry if I mislead anybody.
But it does seem like something changed between these posts and today...
I will embed a vid and click play, and I can see the little yellow marks on the vid timeline where the ads are supposed to be, but they don't play.
Those yellow marks only showed up in embedded vids (at least for me) like yesterday.
Anyways, again, my bad. Lol.

But totally still get your own site though. I know you wanna have fun like I have fun. Let's do it together, but separate.
