The second i see an ad in cancelling my subscription
Same.
You do see ads, you just don't realize it. There are multiple 1-2 minute videos on your feed usually with the title "Introducing [insert product]" and these are product placements that YouTube is very well aware of. They also had the audacity to tell me that these are ads but they don't "interfere" with me watching videos. So, they are injecting ads into premium subscriber feeds already. Disgusting company.
That's true.
I can skip those at least. And do with sponsorblock
