@AlternateRoute I have yet to come across a single person you pays for youtube premium. I am sure someone does, but I have not met one yet.
I pay for it. I paid for it a little while after yt red came out. Then bought a family plan because it was such a good deal and not having ads and paying to support my creators is worth it.
But it keeps going up and I want to cancel. But, I guess so many people decided to block ads on yt instead of doing what I did (yt's logic, not sure if the sole or primary reason), that now there's a million long af ads? It's kind of like the health insurance cost increase feedback loop (uninsured gets hurt, gets treated, drives cost for paying customers up, less people get insurance, more people driving cost for paying customers up, repeat).
Paying the 7 bucks a month (84/y)for yt red back then was a barely acceptable deal. But NOW I'm paying close to 30 (360/y)now for a family plan and that's just not okay (when I first started family plan, it was like 13.xx/m (156/y), and that was a great deal). Maybe I'll buy a pi-hole and cancel, because this shit is ridiculous and I can't afford it.

It’s only $23 a month for my family plan? Yours is 30?
