Is it a slow rollout or a experimental update thing? I don't have it on mine.

Only in Germany in a test of a lower Premium plan so far.

What's the point of paying for YouTube Premium if you get ads anyway?

[-] sepiroth154@feddit.nl 41 points 7 months ago

You get amazing features like: background play (which is more of an annoyance), remember where i left off (which doesnt work whatsoever, even 5 years after it was first released), download video's to watch offline (you need to remember to download them first or hope that YouTube's recommendation algoritm didnt pick videos you've already wachted) oh, and you can get a slightly higher bitrate for 1080p. So basically it loses all value.

Yea, but your “download” f**ing expires! So it’s useless when you go somewhere with no internet.

[-] CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social 7 points 7 months ago

wait, what? does it download as some proprietary format and not a normal video file then?

[-] lugal@lemmy.ml 10 points 7 months ago

As if there weren't other ways to download videos from YouTube...

[-] Slovene@feddit.nl 8 points 7 months ago

Hehehe what do you mean? I have no idea what you're talking about. 👀

[-] lugal@lemmy.ml 7 points 7 months ago

Me neither laughs nervously

I'd recommend downloading from sources that don't compress a much/badly as YouTube does ;)

[-] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

I remember when background play was for everyone.

[-] Technofrood@feddit.uk 2 points 7 months ago

And YouTube music which honestly seems to do the heavy lifting on the value equation.

So... Basically NewPipe but paid and with ads? Brb, going to setup a monthly 14€ donation to the NewPipe team.
