Google raising price of YouTube Premium to $13.99 per month
(9to5google.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Why? It gives the creators more money than watching ads and you get no ads on Smart TVs etc.
I mean yes you can watch youtube with vanced, Sponsorblock etc pretty much without ads everywhere, but because I hate ads and did that I like supporting the channels without having to manage a ton of little donations
I hate corpos, so I do what I can to not support them. The creators that I watch I donate directly to or purchase their merch/products. That supports them far more than the fractions of a cent that me watching ads or paying for a premium service gives them.
