I remember ages ago when you could just have youtube background play on android. Then they removed it. And now you have to pay for it.

I'm not giving them my money, especially when you consider how much data they harvest from you to sell it on.

I pay for spotify, whilst they do use trackers and sell your data. I get a metric ton more use out of it. Youtube to me, is just background noise.
