Pssssttttt! I have had a family subscription ever since they introduced the option in India. However, people think I'm crazy for, "something that you get for free." So, I tend to keep quiet amongst friends and I just shrug, "yeah, I just block all ads at the door of the Internet as it enters our home."

Youtube Premium is definitely worth it and economically viable to subscribe, here in India. (Similar story with Spotify.)

Update: just saw your edited comment. How do you turn off Shorts?
