Because I have a family subscription.
YT and YT music for the whole family, means my kids are ad free and managed.
I use the heck out of it and can afford it.
I don’t pay for Spotify, and with the price hike Disney + is about to get the eye patch treatment.
But I really do use the heck out of YT, so for me it’s worth it.
But if you don’t see the value, do what you gotta do.
Why even use the offical site or app anyway?
Because hosting an invidious instance isn’t free, and I like to keep the strain off. I can only monetarily support so many tech habits!
I don’t host anything myself, a local Piped instance on the Desktop and Newpipe on Android serve me splendidly
I really feel you on that one though
What about FreeTube? Revanced? Grayjay? You don’t need to host it yourself!
