    I dropped all my subs and only have youtube premium. I hate ads and I watch a lot of tubes. I don’t feel bad about it since they share revenue with creators.

      Damn, lemmy is over here upset that you pay for something you like and use frequently.

      YouTube creators have said many times they get a lot more from a premium view compared to a regular one.

      Same. I feel my family gets more than enough value out of Premium between their video, music, and other services to make the subscription worthwhile.

      Same here, though I’m slowing down on watching. My son and I love YouTube music as well, we share tunes regularly and I like the recommendation feed. I use Linux and wish there was a more libre solution, but it seems lemmy doesn’t like paying for anything whatsoever.

      I felt bad about it so I stopped using YouTube directly/with ads because of being part of Google and too closely tied to politics/current admin. Same with Amazon, Apple, Meta, and X. My wallet is the last voice I have at this point.
