I have YouTube premium but (besides now) I'm borderline afraid to reveal this to anyone online due to crowd mentality being fully against paying for YouTube. It's around 3.5€ per month for me as part of family plan me and bunch of friends created. Supposedly creators earn far more from premium watches than people watching ads, so that's nice to know.
I like(d) YouTube premium. It pays significantly more to creators while removing ads and adds other paywalled features like music.
But I stopped mine because I became more budget conscious, and because I basically stopped using the site entirely because the UX is so bad! I primarily use freetube desktop and pipepipe android, so creators weren't going to get paid for my views anyways, so I just cancelled... But ideally, if the site UX wasn't terrible and I used it as intended, I'd happily sub.
