      I have premium and am logged in. I get the stalls. It’s also a new experience. I also have to manually adjust quality to get better than squareville.

      I don’t believe this for a minute. Why would anyone trust this?

        🤷‍♂️

        It’s not.

        You think you’d be on here and not see 40 posts of people screeching that YT is serving ads to premium users?

          I don’t know a single person who has ever paid for YouTube premium, and would consider anyone who does to be a mark. And I’m certain that, for a variety of reasons, the userbase of this place are very unlikely to use premium.

          So no, I don’t think I would have heard about that

            Premium user here. Sorry I’m outside of your bubble. Unfortunately, there still is good reason to have it right now. At least for those in my circle.

              Paying for something that adblockers and workarounds give you for free makes you a mark.

              Google isn’t my friend and they don’t deserve my money. I’m sure “your circle” is very prestigious and hard to deceive though
