  • it's too expensive to begin with. 14$/month ? Netflix is more expensive to run and is cheaper. I would be fine paying 5€/month tho.

  • at this point YouTube made a point I was not an acceptable client for them (5s delay because I'm not using the company mandated browser) so I'm not supporting that.

You want my money Google? You already did. I bought a fucking pixel 8 pro because it's a goddamn amazing phone. Do the same with YouTube.

the pixel phones are great, I had the 7 and now the 8 pro. it pains me to see Google's business decisions with everything else

It's not too bad if you do it in a family plan and split the cost. I pay under £5 a month for it

What does it get you that using Brave doesn't?

No need to worry about adblock suddenly stopping working

Creators get a shit ton more money from premium users whereas if you adblock they get none

YouTube music on mobile which imo is the best music streaming service out there for the money

God forbid anyone on Lemmy spends money on content they consume daily.
