I don't lump in YouTube with other types of social media. While undoubtedly the vast majority of content on YouTube (either by count or by number of views) is utter garbage there is still more quality content than I will ever be able to watch in a lifetime. Documentaries, talks, lectures, concerts, content creators on all kinds of interesting things, from retro computers to history or science.

I would buy YouTube premium but I don't really want to remunerate Google for their anticompetitive business practices or their mistreatment of content creators. So I just go for patreon of channels I like.
