Hi,

Trying to do it myself but I'm stuck with YouTube.

I mean, I need a gmail account to pay for the Premium sub. And then, most creators are still using YouTube not the few alternatives... How do you guys do?

My friend, look into Grayjay, SponsorBlock, Firefox and UBlock

GrayJay is awesome, I'm excited for more sites to be added! I just need to work through my YouTube algorithm addiction lmao
