I saw today new “merch” section below comments. I’m a premium users for a reason, I want 0 ads.

I just canceled my subscription and moved to yattee / invidious for good.

      I use revanced. None of youtube’s changes upsets me because I know within hours/days they’ll be patched out.

      I know all the private alternatives are useful, but using the google ecosystem directly without dealing with their money grubbing schemes feels like nice way of saying “suck it”

      Does it? Adblockers block these, too. So the people who pay for Youtube Premium are the ones affected, not the ones not paying for it.

        Reading the responses here, yes.

        It seems to be the principle of the matter, not a reaction from the userbase.
