  I mean, 6+ hours of video a day without ads, while actually supporting the creators I watch. I watch enough people I can’t afford to give them all money on patreon or buy merch. I have youtube running like 50% of the time I’m home and awake, and after a decade of using ad block (because honestly, fuck ads), I figured it was about time I started paying for it.

  There is an amount that I’ll think is too much and I’ll go back to my old ways, but I have a minimum wage job in a country where that means something so the fqct I’m now paying $17 a month instead of whatever it was before, like 13 I think, I’m not too bothered.

  I also don’t pay for other subscriptions because what youtube has is just better. Like cool, Netflix has movies and shit, but similar exists on youtube and a lot of creators make better content for me than most of what’s on Netflix.
