this is why I got premium. I consume the majority of my YT on my apple tv or iphone. I don't watch it that often on my computer, which was the only place I could easily block ads.
I used to have this VPN app called luna that would block all YT ads on the iphone YT app, but it no longer works.
once I saw the hack that allows u to get premium for next to nothing, I said fukk it. I got the family plan and put my girl, my kids, my brother and my homie on it, so now everyone
YT premium also lets u consume the content on your phone or tablet with the app in the background or the screen off, which is also a feature that gets overlooked.
