As @Google+@YouTube want to force ads on people, I am cancelling my premium subscriptions. I was grandfathered from Google Music to YT Red to YT Premium & YT Music. Would be 8 years this week. Please reply with your favorite ways to block ads on all devices. #MurderGoogle

Just spent my day unsubscribing from everything Google related and setting up adblock on TV. I've got a VPN and SmartTube and am comfy.

I want to migrate off Gmail too. Does anyone in dis thread have a nice tool for migrating entirely off Gmail? I can share my work flow for yt-dlp if it helps anyone. Videos I watch a lot or that I think are likely to disappear I just archive on my plex server.

I'm more disappointed than anything that you gave money to google for so long. Use spotify with an adblock like everyone else.

I enjoyed the music finding algo, and then when I drove I didn't have ads on mobile.

A custom extension that is just a JS script that deletes divs containing ads in a setInterval. Works great
