>I mean it takes ~15 seconds to update uBlock Origin's filter scripts any time there's an update to bypass YouTube. Based on my current salary that's under 50 cents worth of my time.

It takes me precisely 0 seconds to update uBO's scripts. It's all done automatically; am I the only one here that doesn't spend any time at all blocking ads? I installed uBO ages ago, I've spent a couple minutes going through the options and enabling almost everything useful to me (annoyance lists, etc.), and that was it. It doesn't take any effort on my part to block ads on YouTube or anywhere else now that it's set up.

Also, I've also have zero adblock warnings so far, on FF/Linux, FFNightly/Android, and SmartTubeNext.

Setting up a YouTube Premium account and managing the payment details would honestly take me far more time than it does for me to block ads.
