A lot of Youtube channels are reporting declining viewership lately.

Fun times. Looks like a lot of channels are seeing a decline not just Linus. Hes just the latest to talk about it.

Then I saw this article as well and thought I would share.

Anyone here youtube creators? Are you seeing the same thing, a general downturn in viewership?

Or if you use adblock and stream at 4k, google will lose money when you watch videos. Free content while fucking google over is a win win in my book.

It's a big waste of energy to stream in 4K, so if I were you I'd simply not watch the video.

Nah, I still enjoy the content, and it wouldn't make a grain of difference as far as global wasted energy goes.

If you really are concerned about wasted energy though, you shouldn't be on your computer/phone browsing lemmy.
