I share the sentiments — I happily pay for all kinds of digital subs, but YouTube really rubs me the wrong way. Yes, it feels like they’re trying to trick me into a sub, and yes I realize if I do it, the tricks will go away. I just don’t feel good about giving money to a company like this.
It’s the same reason I eventually got rid of my Pixel — it felt like a box just for Google to push ads at me, even though it was a premium product at a premium price.
