    YT is only usable with ad blockers nowadays. And then it does not make a difference if you have a subscription or not.

    I would subscribe YT if they had a reasonably priced ad free tier, but if it does not make a difference, I’ll watch it for free.

      That way of thinking is a trap. They did have a more reasonably priced ad free tier but people using it only made it worse over time because it got so popular that Youtube could confidently raise prices and slash benefits. And the line has to go up. That‘s the only thing that matters to them.
