YouTube's cat-and-mouse game against third-party apps only ensures more people will dislike the company

        You can like something and want it to be better. In the lack of actual alternatives the vitriol against YouTube’s anti-user decisions makes a lot of sense. I think you’re just being contrarian.

          I think the issue is that video content is expensive to make and host

        Youtube is one of those things you can’t avoid in practice. So if you don’t like it what do you do? do you just miss out on most existing video content?
