Not really reasonable. I don’t make much above min wage but get YT Premium
Comment on Goodbye Youtube and thanks for all the fish
Maajmaaj@lemmy.ca 1 year agoWell, would ya look at Mr/Ms moneybags over here.
If you’re broke like me, get libretube on PC and newpipe on Android.
If you’re on iOS, may Satan have mercy on your souls.

But your “solution” sounds like you don’t contribute at all. Especially none of the content creators gets a dime out of your consumption.

Lol, fuck em. Actually, fuck them and Google. I’m broke, they aren’t, so fuck em. The world is on the brink of another major war and you want me to pay for some shit that Google has plenty of funds to cover. Fuck em.

Vivaldi browser just came out for iOS and has Adblock support. So does Firefox focus. Also, invidious/piped is always an option.

Using AdGuard and Vinegar to use YouTube in Safari, I can’t remember when I last saw an ad. It’s not ideal, but it works well enough.

If you are broke you are better off using your time outside fediverse or social media to make extra money.
Maajmaaj@lemmy.ca 1 year ago
Or maybe you can mind you fucking business. I’m studying 6-7 hours daily.
Rengoku@lemm.ee 1 year ago
I mind my own business earning money.
Unlike you.
Be more keyboard warrior please.

I’ll admit I make good money. I work in software.
But I’ve been paying that since before I was making good money. Again, this is my music streaming platform. I would be paying $10/month to Spotify if I weren’t paying $14/month to YouTube.
(Actually I looked into my subscription while typing this, and I’m still paying the grandfathered price of $9.99/month for YouTube Premium. Pretty sweet, that.)

FYI, that grandfathered price goes away after December
TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 1 year ago
That’s a shame, but the benefits still outweigh the cost in my mind. I hate ads, so what I get out of a YouTube Premium subscription is far more than what I get from Netflix or Max.
(And I realize I can get all of this for free by going around the TOS, but if I have the money I might as well support the service.)
