Title says it all. Got the message of three remaining videos and then it locked.

I am using FireFox

Edit: Apparently, it was caused by me being logged into YouTube. But I would really like to be. Because that’s where all my subscriptions are. If anyone knows of a way to have it both ways, please let me know.

Edit’ : It was my Ghostery extension that was causing ruckus. I don’t really like the idea of having to switch it off but at least it’s nice to know the cause. Anyway, everything is working now. Even when I am logged in ^^

    Judging from how many SWEs are in the US, its basically this or loose your job. And that’d be a bit bad because of how many different pricing crisis there are at the moment.

      Judging from how many voters are in the US, it’s basically a totalitarian dictatorship or die.

      That like of reasoning is kinda broken. We need people to take responsibility before things go too far. Google engineers can get jobs anywhere, they don’t need to be doing this shit if they don’t want to.

        I would wager a guess and say that many joined long before they got this bad, probably because back then their visions and values were a lot more aligned

        Nowadays I rarely see more than hectic startups and Big Tech, both of which have massive downsides which affect people outside of their field too.

        Additionally, especially at the HQs of Google and others, many SWEs live in vans on the street because rent is too high, they cannot just work somewhere else as that won’t actually change the situation
