I might be a sucker but I bought YouTube Premium about a year ago and it's definitely been worth it for me. I love watching those 10-20min length YouTube videos instead of watching TV shows, so skipping the ads is really clutch and has saved me probably 24+ hours of my life lol.

There is nothing wrong with paying for a service you use. If you are a normal techie. Ask yourself: How many hours will I spend circumventing this, then having to deal with when it breaks etc. Vs. paying the bill. For me, it was an easy call, and one I don't regret.

  Also: I watch Youtube on my TV. So circumnavigating ads is not as simple as installing adblocker. Also 2: I got rid of Spotify because of that so that's a win. (Considering the payment changes they are making now + Joe Rogan and anti-vax stuff from during the pandemic, not going back there)

    I haven't tried this; but if you have an Android TV, NewPipe might work on it.

    I do also. I wish the LG had Nebula. I'd gladly pay the fee.

The people wasting their lives trying to figure out how to not pay other people for their entertainment are the suckers, you'd think Premium was 60 bucks a month with the way some people here are talking about it.

  Premium costs about 10X what ads costs in terms of how much money Google takes in from a typical viewer. Why would I give Google a 10X win when I can spend just 10 seconds updating my invasion filters to prevent hostile content from showing on my computer screen?
