YouTube Premium is the best $10 I spend per month. Nowhere else can I consistently find the sort of niche content that interests me.
I prefer newpipe for $0/mo
I mean it’s just $10. People are making livelihoods based off from YouTube. I get not liking ads, but if you have the option to go ad free for a low cost, why not do it? Do you pay for any of Netflix, Paramount, AppleTV, etc.?
I would prefer to pay that money to creators directly than to pay it to an adtech firm and trust that they'll dole it out fairly.
