My credit card has expired and thus my youtube premium with it.
I received some alerts from YT before it happened and now the subscription has been terminated and the first video I watched without the premium had 3 ads in 5 minutes.
3 ads. In 5 minutes.
I’m disgusted. My hatred towards the greedy corporations has been gradually exceeding the boiling point for the past couple of years and now I experienced how YouTube tries to force it’s users to pay the tribute.
I’m using YT a lot so I’d take no issue paying if it just improved the experience, but not if it’s the only way to use the “free” app. I’m not gonna get my money extorted by a fucking corporation.
Fuck them, intalling ReVanced now.
I pay but it’s mostly for music streaming, we use the heck out of that, and streaming is a choose your poison thing. Google Play Music was the best streaming app ever built, YouTube music not as good but still ahead of Spotify for what we listen to. The ad free YouTube is a side effect.
