    Ok so I am a youtube premium subscriber. And to have the best experience, I had to install 4 plugins Sponsorblock, Dislike button back, Dearrow, ublock (to remove shorts).

    After thier recent changes to their search engine, it might be more efficient to cancel my subscription and use piped.

      If you feel like keeping YouTube premium you could always vpn to another country and get it for stupid cheap. I believe I vpn’d to Thailand and pay $2 a month for it. You only need the vpn to set up the sub and then you’re good to go.

        I use extensions with Firefox for PC.

        Unfortunately I’ve an iPhone so I’ve to deal with all of that crap. I only use the phone for music so no complains.

        However, I replaced my Apple Tv with mini pc running linux.
