Less than 1 year of premium can buy an Nvidia Shield that you can install any YouTube app you desire, including the ones with no ads and SponsorBlock built in.

Along with the fact that even when you pay for premium Google still sucks you dry for user data they can sell it’s not hard to see why people are completely unsympathetic to YouTube as a corporation.

They’ve also removed free features and locked them behind a monthly cost. Yeah nah, fuck Google.
