    This reminded me that I’m paying for Youtube Premium and yet the platform is incredibly user-hostile even to paying customers. Fuck them.

      It’s a thing for every streaming app. You don’t get to chose what to see even if you pay.

      Try to find a music streaming service that isn’t shited up with podcasts and audiobooks.

      User controlled streaming is not available for any price. The only way is to yohoho and plex it yourself.

        Already running Plex, though to be fair - it’s not like they can escape enshittifaction either. I will probably switch over to jellyfin at some point.

      Yeah I had Premium for a while but all it does is remove ads. You still get the horrendous user experience.

      Why??? Use Revanced. Google doesn’t need your money and they don’t care about users at all, quit paying them.
