    I have ublock on my desktop but for me with a wife and kids who who have their own devices, the TVs in the house etc, the convenience of never getting ads on any device is really good.

    And for me personally I don’t mind paying if I get value in return, and I do.

      That’s more a benefit for them than you though. I think people are more asking what’s the benefit for users with the know how and willingness to implement what features they want for themselves.

      Pipe YT through something like Brave and you won’t get ads either. Plus, you can minimize the browser and it will continue playing, unlike the YT app which makes you pay for that.

      But it’s coo to financially support your favorite billion-dollar corpo too I guess.

      I bought premium just so my wife and me can listen to music while commuting. Not having to rely on ublock origin (which I still have on my desktop at home) is a nice extra, but mobile was my main concern. I’d like to keep the usage of tools like Vanced at a minimum. They could stop working on the one day when I’m stuck in a train for hours.
