Honestly, as much as it pains me to say, I would pay for something below Premium. Like YouTube Plus or whatever. So I could get reduced ads, but not the crazy 3 minutes of ads they'll probably go to. I think Premium is $12 USD a month right now, I would want something at $6 (preferably $5). I don't think it's worth it for me to pay $12 for the amount I watch YouTube, but some of the info on YouTube is worth paying a little something for them to host it. I'm definitely going to start downloading some videos now though in case YouTube gets worse and worse...
I set my location to a different country to get a cheaper rate. It's a pain the in the ass to set up but might be worthwhile. My family plan is like $4.
Didn't think about or know you could do that. Hmm 🤔
$2.99 a month for an un-skippable ad at the beginning of a video is the threshold for me. Anything more than that and I’m just not interested. Make the length and cost of the ad itself commensurate to the length of the video it precedes. I hate watching videos that are chopped up into bits with thoughts interrupted at random.
