brave browser gang. I forgot youtube has ads and forget they were being blocked until these threads pop up. Used to pay for premium but youtube's approach to downloading videos is janky. Can't just dl them as an mpeg, avi, mp4 and watch it offline.

Why should I pay when I can have what I want for free?

I mean, what advantages Premium gives you other than avoid adds and using with your phone shut? Serious question
personally I'm the head of the family plan and got my pops, etc. on it.

so having YTP at an account level is nice.

I don't wanna alwaysbe updating/sideloading/pi-hole etc. just for ads for him nor anyone else.

this is the no headache option

Google is out there stealing people stuff to train its AI, they are stealing my data and spying on me, but I should be pay them to be decent? :stopitslime:

They ain't getting a dime!
If Google doesn't keep that platform up those people can't make a living. Google pays those creators with about half those funds.

If you're gonna shaft them don't pin it on Google pin it on the fact that you're an entitled a$$hole who has no problem consuming what they make and paying them nothing for it.

You just using Google to smooth over the cognitive dissonance of screwing them over. If you have an issue with Google you could not use their platform.

I'm saying. back when I used to pay the argentinian price, I said never pay full price. and when that lick ended......guess what I'm paying full price.

YT is literally unwatchable on the free tier, unless u only watch on your laptop with adblockers.

i am kinda :mjlol: at all the grandstanding...like YTP is where you draw the line?

but you cool with copping the new iphone/samsung annually, netflix/spotify/hulu/doordash/whatever subscriptions

I try to keep my subscriptions at a minimal, but I currently pay for:

YT premium
disney+ (annually)
apple tv+
sony PSN (annually)

so I'm not nearly as out of control as some folks are.

I don’t have Netflix or any other streaming service but YT music is just as meaningful for me. There’s songs on YT not on spotify or Apple or whatnot.
