It's been a bit of a journey today, I've been trying to find somewhere where I can genuinely start a thread and discuss this, I didn't end up watching today's LTT video because, I had to reach for my remote control to dismiss this pop-up.
For context I am a YouTube premium member, and I tend to prefer to consume my content on my couch using the official YouTube app, my partner pays for it because I had a rage fest over the number of ads that are on it, someone could say this thread is about the value proposition of YouTube premium, - I don't think it's worth it.
There are still ads that show up from time to time.
It would be nice if they could give me the option to disable this 'shop' products pop-up.
It seems to be appearing in every other video that mentions a product, and it makes me rage every time I see it, because I then need to hunt around for my remote control to dismiss it otherwise it is prevalent and throughout the entire video. - I have YouTube premium so I'm already paying money to hide ads but, from my perspective, I feel like this is an ad.
They also need to understand that there are certain videos in which this pop up is inappropriate. - unless you guys are keen to buy some asbestos drip.
My question to LTT:
Do you have a mechanism to enable this pop-up from the YouTube back-end?
Do you receive any kind of Commission if I was to follow the instructions within this pop-up?
Now that I've cooled down, I might try and re-watch of the video...
