Comment on YouTube Premium family plan price update ($17.99/month -> $32.99/month!)

The only reason I got premium is because she uses YouTube quite a bit and I’d rather pay than her having to deal with ads all day

Depends on the use case. This setup really is to continue watching channels your subscribed towards but theres no search.
You may want to look at invidious which is much more like an alternative front end with search and trending pages.
Sometimes though when people are comfortable with the present it is of course entirely valid to decide that paying up is the least stressfull, best solution for your family. But never hurts to know that alternatives do exist.

If your only concern is ads then get any android box or a fire TV stick and install smarttubenext on it. It’s basically YouTube without the ads and with sponsorblock and dislikes showing.
