Sign up for YT premium using a vpn to a cheap country. I pay $2 a month. Once you sign up you can cancel the vpn and it keeps the same price
but browser adblockers or alterate front ends are free
Premium does support the creators at least
The $2 - Google cut shared with who knows many creators...
Several creators I follow have independently said that a premium user in an order of magnitude or two more valuable for them than a regular ad supported user
and a patreon sub gives them a larger portion of your money
Regular premium users don't pay $2
I don’t feel like dealing with the hassle of side loading, and the browser is limited to 720p. It’s well worth my $2 a month
Sideloading is trivial on Android. If you're on iOS, it's a different matter.
Why would you pay at all though?
Because the family premium tier gets you and designated family ad free YouTube when using Chromecast, and YouTube Music. Worth it for me. We're all cheapskates here, just some of us are less cheap!
I always forget about using it as a family account.
You may pass.
I would never pay YT premium until they implement Sponsorblock, which they won't do.
