Same experience.

The family plan is nice to share with family to reduce how much everyone's exposed to ads.

In-Video sponsorships are a pain, sometimes they are chaptered out enough and can be skipped.

If I could pay for an ad-free google search I probably would. Off the shelf, not doing API calls.



<cough> SponsorBlock (https://sponsor.ajay.app/) <cough>

It works amazingly well provided a video's been out for at least a half hour or so. It also has the option to skip the "like and subscribe" parts too.

I also tried the https://dearrow.ajay.app/ extension to replace clickbait titles, but decided I'd rather know when a channel/video is too clickbait-y so I can block/unsubscribe.


I wish many of these suggestion worked for casting.

Browser extensions don't fix a chromecast skipping ads, for example. It'd have to be written into the casting client, I'd presume.


Yeah, this can be a consideration, and also a non-issue with Youtube Premium
