And then there are people like me, who aren't opposed to paying for access in theory, but will never be okay with having the videos I watch be tied to an account. It's inconvenient and I don't trust Google with my watch history, even when the option is turned off.
Also I wouldn't pay until: Youtube stops showing ads for hate groups; stops its manipulative recommendations and push towards right-leaning and extremist content; stops manipulating creators to all make the same kind of video in order to please the algorithm; removes hate content and extremist content; stops auto-flagging and removing fair-use content.
