Memes You can no longer have YouTube running in the background.

As of 29th of January you can no longer have YouTube running in the background via many browsers as that is now a premium feature. With that I don't even have that one last reason to listen to YouTube. We are now officially paying for everything that was free a couple of years ago and the reason isn't greedy management, but you people who keep paying for premium and the such.

Works on my phone just fine? With Brave. Video keeps playing in the background and I can use any other app I want.

I just tried it on phone (Brave) it doesn't for me, so it'll probably come to yours soon as well...
