      Do you mean 87.7% use the YouTube iOS/Android App or 87.7% use their smartphone to watch YouTube? Because in the latter case you also can use ReVanced, Firefox + Adblock, Invidious, etc.

      They are mad that ‘Potential Revenue Number made up by MBA Shithead’ ≠ Actual Revenue Number.

      Numbers must always go up. Never down.
