I think that's fine. Let the non-tech-savvy users pay for the service. It seems like they deserve it, and also they keep YT running for "free".

You can keep enjoying YT with Firefox + uBO or PipePipe on your phone.

I'm pretty tech savvy and pay for premium. It's just too good a value for my household right now.

You could save nearly a couple hundred a year in most instances. LG have a dev account path, android is relatively simple I hear and various foss apps and patching apps will cover most.

Google are undeserving of more money

But I don't just use it for watching videos. I also use YT music to listen to a few hours of music every day, and I also use it as off site storage for hundreds of hours of 4k video.
