Simon B. StøvringI'm probably the last person on Earth to buy YouTube Premium, but I just did. Maybe it'll last, maybe it won't, but right now I just can't take any more betting ads.
James Thomson@simonbs Second last - I refuse on principle, because it feels like a shakedown every time I look at a video!
@jamesthomson I can totally relate. But the betting ads, man…
@simonbs Yeah, nothing says healthy society like betting adverts.
Chris Wu 🪐@jamesthomson @simonbs it took them years but they finally broke me.

If anything breaks me it's going to be the Paddy Power ads in the UK. The same ads have been following me around on YouTube for about half a decade. Ir feels like I'm the subject of a psychological experiment.
Daniel Kennett@MuseumShuffle @jamesthomson @simonbs I actually think YouTube Premium is the subscription I get the most value out of.
I watch YouTube a lot - it’s almost replaced TV for me. No ads and the creators I enjoy get more money per view from me? Heck yeah.
@ikenndac @jamesthomson @simonbs 100% agree. I went from “they won’t get me “ to “this is the last subscription I would get rid of“.
Uhl Albert@MuseumShuffle @ikenndac @jamesthomson @simonbs Same here!
No ads are definitely a game changer, but I also love background play and offline downloads. They’d have to REALLY jack up the price for me to drop Premium.
Frank@jamesthomson @simonbs You can bet on this
