I generally agree with subscriptions. "if you're not paying for the product, you are the product".
But there are better platforms to support with your money. Youtubes main selling point was that it was free. Now that it is not, it's a good time to look into paid alternatives. For music I am already using bandcamp and spotify. For general documentaries I plan to switch to Nebula/CuriosityStream (I planned this for some time now, but I this may be the nail in the coffin)
