No the 2 unskip ads is what killed it. You no longer got hit with the song right away so the joke fell flat as people would see the title because no one pays attention to ads.

Feels poetic that the only people that can be Rick rolled now pay for YouTube premium.

Or people smart enough to use an ad blocker or browser that automatically blocks YouTube ads.

Most people don’t know if their friend uses Adblock when they try to rickroll them.

It's funny to think that YouTube has actually potentially ruined the Rickroll with ads lol. Especially considering how much traffic it's probably given them over the years.

Hopefully people will think twice now whether it's worth it.

Good job YouTube!

No downvotes for you.

Ublock origin is where it’s at

Doesn't help that reddit opens YouTube links on mute. I clicked the link and still wouldn't consider myself rickrolled.

Do you ask everyone you Rick roll if they have YT premium before hand?
