Wow that sounds atrocious. Music glitching is such a mood killer. Hope you’re in a better place today.

I had premium... until they started glitching my songs out because every time an ad would have played, they just skipped 15 seconds of the song, and since an ad never played, the trigger never got disarmed, and all of my songs would play for 5 seconds, then skip 15 seconds.
I was willing to pay to rid my life of ads, but instead I just got glitchy garbled music.

That’s not how YouTube ads work at all. Sounds like your device was just messed up, or maybe some YouTube related addon was interfering with playback. I know from experience that Revanced is unusable with YouTube premium, it seems like they’ve only tested the app on subscriptionless users.

No add ons. Just how youtube premium was behaving on both my android youtube app and my Firefox browser back when I cancelled.
I still love the balls of saying "this is what you experienced an undisclosed amount of time ago? ThAtS nOt HoW yOuTuBe AdS wOrK."

I had the same on revanced, thought they found a new way to fight adblock.
Turns out if you clear the cache occasionally it goes away. The youtube app is a piece of trash.I would switch, but I only use it for music and I haven’t seen another frontend support mixes, which I rely on

Sounds like a personal problem. That’s not how YT premium works at all.
