minus-square@croix@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish16•2 years agoWho tf is actually paying for YouTube premium?!
minus-squareVitaManlinkfedilinkEnglish9•2 years agoI do. I watch a lot of YouTube videos, I hate ads and use YouTube music as my primary source of music.
minus-square@x3n0s@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish9•2 years agoI do since YouTube music is included and dislike Spotify UI.
minus-square@x3n0s@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish1•2 years agoI really only care about the music subscription.
minus-square@Emi621@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglish1•2 years agoRevanced is also for YouTube music
minus-square@Samuel255@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish5•2 years agoI do as well. It includes YouTube kids and I get music.
minus-square@TheQuantumPhysicist@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglish4•2 years agoIt’s all about the economics. Is your time more valuable than that wasted by the ads? If you’re watching YouTube 10 minutes a day, then it doesn’t make sense for you. Cost/benefit analysis should be done.
minus-square@moreeni@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglish5•2 years agoYou can just use an adblocker and/or a custom front end
minus-square@Zappy@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglish3•2 years agoEh it’s not that much if you use YouTube Music, and unlike Adblock creators get paid.
minus-square@moreeni@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglish1•2 years agoI’d rather give creators one time donations, tbh. $5 most likely would cover everything, creators gain very little from ads per viewer/listener
minus-square@And009@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkEnglish1•2 years agoI was forced to subscribe because iPad doesn’t support any kind of adblock…
minus-square@youhavechosenwisely@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglish1•2 years agoRestrictive corporate environments who do not allow for custom software installation. I pay for it but with the VPN trick. I am on vanced and sponsor block as soon as I leave the work place. Sucks but that is one of the use cases.

Have any of you heard of an adblocker?
