Speak only for yourself. In the meantime, I use uBlock.

Inb4 they lock youtube behind DRMs with hardware authentication.

(Some apps don't run on third-party OS like Graphene OS anymore, that could be the future of technology)

If they make it too hard I'll stop watching. I have no intention of watching their ads (ads are psychological abuse), and they charge way-yyy too much for premium.

Exactly. There is practically an infinite supply of entertainment with a wide variety these days. There are too many alternatives to care about any single source.

Yeah, at some point it will become just like cable TV, which I don't watch, so... There's plenty of other stuff out there.
