I’ve only subscribed to YouTube Premium for the past two months, and I like the ad-free experience and Music streaming bundled in one price, PHP159 or $3/month. Will this probably my last? Yesterday morning, Google automatically charged me for my YouTube Premium subscription through my e-wallet service.

It was successfully deducted, but the service didn’t update its validity. Does Google want me to charge twice, or they want me to go back on uBlock Origin on Librewolf (desktop) and NewPipe on Android? lol

EDIT (2023-10-22): Google recently refunded the amount to my e-wallet. So far, my account is still active. If ever Google bans my account, then probably my domain will be banned.

      As an Asian, online subscriptions tend to be cheaper than US. Is my PHP159 ($3) can support 14 different Patreons? E.g. RedLetterMedia’s Patreon will cost me $2 per month.

      you could support 14 different Patreon

      by watching YT with Premium, I support far more than 14 creators. The difference per 1k views of normal vs premium views is a couple orders of magnitude

      (Plus, I also pay about 100 bucks a month for various patreon creators)

        Fucking hell, that’s a lot of money to give away each month. Good for you!

        I would much rather pay creators directly via Patreon. That’s quite the amount of money. I commend you.
