Not sure why anyone would rather pay Google money vs simply installing YouTube revanced. If that ever goes away (it won't), then I'll just go back to Firefox + extensions for YouTube on mobile.
I have an account I bought from an Indian friend for around $20/y, and the only way I use it is for my TVs. They are "smart", but not android-based, causing me to not be able to install smartube or the likes.
Fair enough. If you happen to have an LG like I do, I recently learned this trick to install ad-free YouTube. Worked like a charm.

Unfortunately that isn't usable for non-tech relatives, which is why I had to give up on setting up YouTube ad-free for WebOS recently. None of the permanent exploits seem to work anymore.
