    Thanks for contributing! What is the difference between your experience and mine (with an ad blocker)?

      For me, it was about being able to watch yt on my tv and mobile devices which are not able to block ads as easily as a desktop browser. I have a pihole on my home network, but it hasn’t been able to block yt ads for a few years.

      Not the person you replied to, but I use the queue feature a lot, the ability to just queue up 10 videos at night and fall asleep without having to worry about making a playlist is nice. I also use their experiments a lot, like for example they currently have an AI experiment active that let’s you ask questions that it will answer based off the video. someone post a video that looks super boring or bland or too long, but you wanna know what happens? just ask for a summery, you get something that looks like this.

      honestly if the download offline functioned better that would be an amazing feature too, it’s just glitchy for me.

      Currently the price is steep though, I’ve told myself if it raises again I’m jumping ship myself
