Had suspicions with Rossman involved and a quick check of the ltt subreddit means I both need a shower and likely know why it was delisted:

The issue isn't "how to live without google". Plenty of those videos exist

The issue is encouraging people to use third party apps that violate the TOS and let you watch youtube without ads. That is not "living without google". That is "You should 'steal' from google"


But honestly, not surprising. Rossman has pretty much always been on the "Fuck em, just pirate it" side of things for better or for worse.

Whereas LMG are still desparate to get back their viewership after all the harassment and incompetence accusations. So nothing better to make people think the company that encourages its users to advocate against warranties is pro-consumer than to pick a pointless fight with google. Which has the added benefit of advertising floatplane (see also: gun youtubers hamming it up over what youtube will let them do to advertise Ian McCollum's latest side hustle).

ads are full of scams, malware and other harmful content because they are barely moderated

blocking them is basic security
