I sure like it. "Free" YouTube is like using a browser without an blocker now - I forget how bad it is and I can't believe people live like that.

Being able to cancel Spotify was a nice bonus too.

What do you mean? UBlock Origin kills all the YouTube ads. Not giving money to Google is perfectly fine.

I have literally never seen a YouTube ad, I think, in my entire life. I would never pay for that experience.
