    I pay for premium… but also like my sponsorblock… and 3rd party clients. Let me have it all momma Google.

      Sponsorblock is awesome!

      Which 3rd party clients are you using?

        SmartTube on TV, Revanced on my phone, and the first party website on my computer.

          What do those do for you if you already pay for premium?

            Sponsorblock, return YouTube dislikes and more customization.

      I can’t justify premium. For the same price I can buy for my family:

      AppleTV+, Amazon Prime Video and Disney+

      Or:

      YouTube but without ads

        How do you pay it though? With a US credit card?

          NZD.

          AppleTV+ ($14.99, Amazon Prime Video ($10.99) and Disney+ ($14.99) = $40.97 per month

          YouTube Premium = $39.99 per month

        Get a VPN and make a quick trip to Turkey or Ukraine where you can get it for about 2€/month

          Once you sign up and pay in Türkiye does it just keep working back in your home country?

            Yes, it’s been working for a year now. I set my location back to Germany right after subscribing to premium

        That’s me too. I was a family subscriber for years. Some of those years it was just myself on there too. But the price hikes and interface degrading was infuriating.
