Ublock Firefox on the computers, revanced on the phone, smarttube next on the TV, which is running FLauncher. Like an hour to set up once and no ads ever again. I'm a little confused by anyone agreeing to pay to unshittify a service made so irritating in the first place, and honestly how anyone puts up with ads at all when it's so easy to avoid them.

I thought about getting it (instead of Amazon Music), but now YouTube is already planning to raise the cost. So nah, I'm good.

I'd consider subscribing to YouTube premium but their scummy policies they thrust on their creators is absolutely terrible. It must be hell trying to tip toe around their platform.

The problem is that every other streaming service is fucking over their content creators too (part of the reason of both the SAG-AFTRA strike and the now ended writer's strike). So any service you're paying for has scummy policies in that department.

I recently signed up for YT premium. Don't get me wrong, I still used ad blockers and ReVanced like a mf, but considered it only fair seeing how much YT and music I have streamed.

I took it for the summer because we move a lot with the kids and it's useful for them to be able to download videos. They've been harrassing me so much to get back on through ads that I finally installed an Adblock.

YouTube premium still tracks you. They only way is third party clients

I technically have it via Youtube ReVanced.

Emails are open; Calls are relayed to Kurt due to me being on vacation. I will make sure to look at new emails at least once every day.

Honestly I hate the damn YouTube premium ads more than any other that I’ve seen on the platform.

Ok maybe not quite as bad as the freaking Genshin ads. Fuck you Natasha!

I wouldn't mind it if it weren't so insane on price. Does YouTube really get $168 of revenue per year from ad-supported users? Doubt it.
