thing that got me w/ YTV, and got it ultimately canceled was trying to share it w/ a family in another state. that doesn’t fly, which was a huge bummer.
The past 3 years, I have shared the service with 3 friends, one of which lives in a different state and we have had no issues. You just add them to your Google Account as “family” and they login their own devices.
There is some weirdness where YouTubeTV gives you 5 family shares, but only 3 total streams (outside your home’s WIFI) can be active at once. That’s why I limited the sharing to 3 total.
Holy cow how much do you spend on media a month, I’m over here thinking the $20 usenet I paid for the year was too much, but was debating on getting sling tv for the parents, right now I have an antenna connected to my plex server but it’s not the easiest to use

Was this a few years ago? This is no longer true.

You should give it another try!
I randomly swap family members and friends out sometimes, too. It’s pretty sweet being able to share all of my apps, books, games and yt.

I used it when it was new for a little while. I liked it as far as a TV service goes but I’m kind of over live shows at this point.
