I cannot imagine paying anything for YT Premium, let alone $14 lol.
Why? It gives the creators more money than watching ads and you get no ads on Smart TVs etc.
I mean yes you can watch youtube with vanced, Sponsorblock etc pretty much without ads everywhere, but because I hate ads and did that I like supporting the channels without having to manage a ton of little donations
I hate corpos, so I do what I can to not support them. The creators that I watch I donate directly to or purchase their merch/products. That supports them far more than the fractions of a cent that me watching ads or paying for a premium service gives them.
If you watch a decent amount of youtube, remove ads is worth it imo. Maybe not $14 a month worth it, but I can't fucking stand ads.
Ad block...Ad block...Ad block... It's like paying for porn... why would anybody ever do that?
I do most of my watching on mobile and it’s not worth it to me to do the crazy workaround to not use the official app.
Firefox mobile, UBlock origin addon. Takes 30 seconds. Or Newpipe app on mobile.
