Is now a paid feature?
Was playback over 2x (through the official app) ever supported for free?
revanced and smarttube
That's so stupid it feels like satire. But I guess it's not too surprising.
I have my own speed control that I can adjust or enter max speed for.
Wait until they find some stupid way to lock down Chrome extensions. I just know they will.
Yeah Google has been "toll-bridging" features into paid-premium since removal of ability to pause with screen off in YouTube.
I wouldnt be surprised if corporate greed forces them to remove pausing videos altogether. Not premium can't pause!
I don't care when my only way to watch YouTube it's either:
- on Firefox with uBlock Origin
- on ReVanced
- on SmartTube (for Android TV)
- by downloading the video through yt-dlp
This is why I am just going to pay networks of my favorite youtubers directly when YouTube finally gets too bad to use. I'm never paying for RedTube or whatever the fuck porny ass name their premium service has so that Google gets most of my money and Mr beast gets a cut while the people I actually watch get nothing. I pay for Dropout already and that shit is so much better than Netflix and other services. Sure it's low budget but it's still better than the slop all the big companies are shoveling out of their troughs.
Don't give them ideas
Then it'll become a premium feature to choose your videos otherwise you'll have to consult a personalised video guide to see when the videos you want to watch will be playing.
Pretty much a traditional tv
laughs in NewPipe
Laughs in Firefox, which allows plug-ins in mobile. I can have all my ad blockers and video speed controllers, and anything else.
You should give NewPipe or Tubular (NewPipe fork with sponsor blocker) a try, it provides a better user experience.
Just use ReVanced
I can barely follow and absorb anything at 1.5-2x.
Beyond that, more power to you.
Yeah, this change has no practical effect on me. But removing and paywalling features is concerning nonetheless.
Speeds over 2x were never a free feature, they just used to not be an option at all.
I'm ADHD and I can't do it. XD
For extremely slow speakers 3x is possible.
Lol nope, out of principle I will never pay for this even if I didn't already hate Google.
It feels so condescending to the user, so unconcerned with their agency that I could never bring myself to support this choice with even a tiny amount of money.
It was never a free feature; they used to only allow up to 2X speed. Not that that justifies it at all of course.
Wdym? I can literally increase to 5x speed on my YouTube client for free rn
I could also only increase the playback speed to 2x at maximum. Firefox and no YouTube specific add-ons are used.
Download it and play it however you want in VLC.
They found out a simple tampermonkey script could speed the ads up to 16x
$('video').playbackRate = 3;
You can use yt-dlp to download it and play it in whatever movie player you want that supports variable speeds, unless and until YouTube cracks down on downloading.
