I really need to sign up for Youtube premium as I hate all the commercials...
It's worth every penny, especially if you're someone who watches a lot of YouTube videos. One way to save money on a subscription is creating a Google Family, with one person subscribed to Premium, and splitting the cost. If one person has Premium access, everyone in the "family" does, too.

How do you guys not have ublock origin? It takes literally 15 seconds. I have not seen a youtube commercial in like 15 years.

I haven't seen an ad on Amazon Prime Video either!

an ad blocker is a must regardless, even this website is impossible to view without one. but i don't just get YT premium for removal of ads, that's simply what irks me the most about it. Background playback, picture in picture, offline viewing through downloads (yt-dlp is slowing dying), and having this available on all my devices/TV is nice.

I also use it as my music source instead of Spotify or similar.

YouTube is getting better at disabling videos if it detects ad blockers. It's only a matter of time before the site becomes completely unusable, even with add-ons. FreeTube is the future.

Don't use your TVs OS. Get an apple/roku/google/amazon/etc device. I stopped using LG's due to ridiculous user agreement terms around privacy and data collection even when turned off.
