I mainly use FreeTube on PC and NewPipe on phone, not to avoid ads, but I just find it a much nicer and more peaceful experience (free of recommendations, Shorts etc).

I actually do pay for YouTube Premium family subscription, but its mainly to protect my less tech-savvy family and friends from ads, and to avoid seeing ads on my Android TV projector.

If google adjusts creators revenue by 1/3 I'll pay that.

People actually pay money to watch YouTube? I thought that was some kind of elaborate practical joke

So Canadians can expect 20$ a month now?

Don't these companies realise they'd have far more subscribers if they weren't so fucking greedy... Newpipe & Libretube ftw👍🏼
