... which also means that the Youtube subscription is at best a temporary escape from ads. It's rapidly going to become worse than adblockers. It's already started. With Youtube premium you still see "promoted" videos, ie. paid ads, in the feed. So in a way it already doesn't deliver.
Plus hosting your own videos is pretty cheap nowadays.

I was shocked at the number of commercials (ads) I was bombarded with. It only got worse... higher cable fees, more ads. They can't have it both ways. I cut the cord many years ago (pre-streaming), never looked back.
