    Youtube premium is pretty pointless when ublock origin exists.

    Edit: sorry should have clarified. I meant in terms of blocking ads. I realize that you still can’t play youtube videos and switch apps.

    Pro tip: Buy the family plan in Asia. It’s like $5 a month here for 5 people

    And I’m pretty sure their youtube premium ads are going to be more annoying.

    Increasing the price of a service that is already piss-poor value for your money is incredibly smart. Who the hell is gonna pay 14$ per month just to get rid of ads?

    I really wish they’d decouple it from YouTube Music. I don’t use it and if just Premium was about $10 or so I’d at least consider it.

    The amount of downvotes on comments trying to help people not get price gouged and comments supporting these subscription price increases shows me just how many corporate shills are actually out there. No wonder these corps keep getting away with this bullshit.

    Edit: Wow so many people took personal offense to this…almost like it they know it’s true but are afraid to admit it. Everyone is hurting financially right now, some more than others. Yet year over year, the prices keep going up even with record inflation and record profits. Keep shilling folks, enjoy emptying your wallets for the millionaires while you struggle.

    F*ck no. I was finally seriously considering buying YT premium for Google not f**king anything up in the past few months, bringing back sort by oldest, and knowing I’m not part of the anti AdBlock trial to make their anti AdBlock efforts less effective.
