Speak only for yourself. In the meantime, I use uBlock.
Inb4 they lock youtube behind DRMs with hardware authentication.
(Some apps don't run on third-party OS like Graphene OS anymore, that could be the future of technology)
If they make it too hard I'll stop watching. I have no intention of watching their ads (ads are psychological abuse), and they charge way-yyy too much for premium.
Exactly. There is practically an infinite supply of entertainment with a wide variety these days. There are too many alternatives to care about any single source.
Yeah, at some point it will become just like cable TV, which I don't watch, so... There's plenty of other stuff out there.

Knowing what people are like, that won't stop adblockers for long
Use third party clients
Grayjay ftw
There's also NewPipe
Or Tubular, if you want NewPipe with SponsorBlock included.
Speak only for yourself. I just don't use YouTube. Like, at all. /s but not /s
