Curious about GitKraken, I've tried it around ~2018 and couldn't see why i'd pay for it. I has nice "visualisations" but nothing that actually helped my workflow.

I mostly use it because it makes rebasing a branch painless compared with CLI or the GitHub web interface.

I was also using it at work when I managed a team because it let me see how their branches sat in relation to `main`.

YouTube premium is equivalent to uBlock Origin

Premium can't block shorts, auto-translate / auto dub, block channels, hide end-of-video cards.

There are Firefox extensions that do all of those things.

uBlock Origin doesn't offer YouTube Music

Why people always forget mobile?

They do not -- NewPipe exists.

What about Appletv and other tvs?

iSponsorBlock for AppleTV, SmartTube for other TVs.

Only on Android.

Firefox on mobile works with ublock. It can also play videos even with the screen locked, although you do have to unpause it after locking the screen.

That was my experience as well, but I pay for it.

I think the family plan has great value if you have family members that wouldn't otherwise pay for it. Gifting others with less ads in their lives is a significant win.

With one fee I can disable all ads for my whole family from every single device we use.

IMO worth it vs. having to figure out why some video isn't working. Or being forced to watch a shitty 2 minute interstitial ad when watching Youtube from my Apple TV.
