I had YouTube Premium after Vanced was killed. I gave it a fair go. No ads- great, it is now back to how it was a decade ago. But also no SponsorBlock - and my God, how many channels I realised I couldn’t listen to anymore when 50% of every video was an ad for one of three online services or games I’m definitely not going to ever pay for. So now I just… don’t watch YouTube on my phone. Hurray?
Seriously, if the ads are supposedly worth €15 a month, pay the fucking YouTubers enough that I don’t have to listen to a linguist try to sell me WarThunder
I know, right? So many creators even explain why they do that, it’s because they can’t make enough from youtube to do this full time, but they can from raid shadow legends.
YouTube premium would be worth something if all the creativity their creators have to use to make a living despite the pay was used for better content.

I still think premium should allow you to block sponsors. YT should make them be sections that are removable.
