    And they won't stop turning the screw here. It's going to get worse. The services will get more expensive as more features are cut. The pursuit of endless profits to prevent shareholders from filing lawsuits will make sure of that.

    They want everyone to shift towards Revanced Extended for Android and Sponsorblock & other YouTube enhancing extensions for PC browsers?

    Honestly, their excessive video ads pushed me to those and other alternatives like Newpipe and Libretube long ago. I also dislike the idea of locking basic functionality like background playback behind a subscription (one-time pro app payments would've been fine to me).

    I can never let go of my $7.99/mo grandfathered plan from Google music which is now YouTube premium. That and Spotify are the only subscriptions I can justify now.

    I recently discovered invidious, or however it’s spelled. The reason I started using it was because I wanted to get rid of YouTube shorts. They are too addicting and there is no way to turn it off on the official app.

    The lack of ads is so nice, I think I’ll keep using it.

    If they only had a way to remove or hide YouTube shorts, then I’d still be using their app watching their ads.

    Is this retroactive or for new subscribers?
