    Slowly but surely, we dropped Amazon, Netflix, and a few other services so far. My goal once I have free time is to setup a plex server so my parents can partake aswell.

    Probably the only thing that won’t get cancelled is YouTube as it provides to many benfits even as the cost goes up when split across 3 households

      I would recommend Jellyfin instead of Plex, it does basically the same thing but it’s open source and way less bloated

      I’m surprised that of all the services you would pay for YouTube, as I’ve never considered it. What advantages does a paid subscription have over uBlock/Sponsorblock?

        The ability to download and use YouTube music with my screen off and the lack of ads on videos I watch on YouTube all the while still supporting the creators.

        I think the $25 a month is worth it when I don’t gotta worry about anything. Plus split that over 7 people and it’s cheaper than Spotify.

      partake aswell

      “Aswell” isn’t a word. Are you using to suggest someone’s riding a swell, like on the water? Are you saying something’s inflamed?

      You don’t have to pay for YouTube revanced. There are also versions of it for PC.

      Anyone know a good alternative to amazon? I fucking hate them so much, they have fucked me over countless times, but I keep crawling back…
