Been paying for YouTube premium for about 8 months now and I think it’s worth every dollar.

[–] garretble@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, I've paid for it for years. I'm OK with helping the creators that way and never having to jump through all the ad block hoops.

[–] Chadsmo@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah I’m a pretty big fan of ‘streamlined stuff that just works as intended’. That’s why I own Apple products to begin with and I basically apply that ethos to everything else in life. So I pay for YouTube , get a better experience and I don’t have to mess with anything.

Especially if you VPN and pay from another country 😉

[–] lackthought@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

what’s the cheapest country to use?

I rarely use youtube on my phone but if the price is right I might snag premium just to have it for when I do want to watch while mobile

I used to use India but they tightened the grip there. I think the last time I renewed I did it from Turkey?

[–] sunbather@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Do you have to watch via vpn too or just pay?

[–] mancy@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Just pay. You can watch from wherever.

I tried the method one time, but my credit card details forced me back to my original country.how have you payed, prepaid tokens? And do you need a specific Google account for that region?

[–] mancy@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I used my regular credit card just fine. I had issues using my card from India and Brazil. But Turkey was okay. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[–] goodhunter@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How odd. Do you mean ‘for’ the Turkey YT store or do you have a Turkish credit card?

[–] mancy@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I just VPN’d and changed my profile address to some random Turkish one and paid with my Canadian credit card on the Turkish YouTube.

[–] goodhunter@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Ok understood, I will give it another shot

[–] blazarious@mylem.me 3 points 1 year ago

Yup, since I watch YouTube almost daily, it’s kind of a nobrainer. I’m happy they offer a version without ads.
