i work in the office, and many of my coworkers need to do so as well. I'm an engineer. we design stuff, then build it, test it, fix it, troubleshoot it, redesign it, etc. Tons of work to be done at the site. But many are trying to work remotely anyway. Problem is they are less productive from home, and when they aren't around to help take care of stuff, the rest of us who did come in have to do their work in addition to our own.
Some jobs can be done remotely, but not all. Engineering can be tough, and lots of people aren't cut out for it. But it's not something you can do from your couch. And I dont even live nor work in a big city. Myself and many others live within 5-15min of work. Myself and many have even walked or biked to work.

When I was in Iraq in 2007, the MRAP vehicles were maintained by civilian contractors. One day, after taking multiple hits, we were low on vehicles and didn't have enough in working order to complete our mission. We weren't allowed to work on the vehicles, and the contractors were taking too long and wouldn't work faster. We broke into their connexes of parts (in broad daylight, we made sure they saw us), took all the parts we needed, dragged vehicles to our motor pool and fixed a bunch of vehicles in mere hours. We fixed these vehicles in hours, that took the contractors days/weeks. We were pissed, armed, and in a warzone. We completed the mission. As far as I'm concerned, what those contractors did, or rather failed to do, and their attempts to stop us fixing our equipment in a time of war on the battlefield, was treason. Contractors don't belong on the battlefield.

@MattyEngland "but then watching a couple of ads shouldn't be a problem either."
wrong. ads are often longer than the videos themselves, poorly timed, loud, and often times (as others have pointed out) borderline softcore porn.
It's a complete waste of time to watch useless ads that don't pertain to me and wont convince me to buy anything. You even admit yourself that sitting through ads is a waste of your time as well. You pay for it, I don't have to.
"Your argument is pretty much like saying that you should be able to take what you want from the supermarket without paying,"
no, you are a complete moron. I even explained it to you. Youtube is convenient. I can get my info from tons of other sources, and do. When youtube stops being free and convenient to me, which it has always been, even before adblockers, I will simply stop using it at all.
"Nothing is free in this world, YouTube content included."
not true. you are really proving your ignorance of reality.

@Ryan-093 "my brother in christ "
I'm not your brother and I'm not religious.
"you clearly don't have better things to do with your time if you spend so much of it constantly dealing with blocking ads"
your ignorant. I don't lift a finger to block ads. Software does all the work for me. I rarely even ever have to think about it. It happens automatically, updates are automatic. I work in teh computer industry and see what changes day to day.
" I've never seen an ad on YT in years and have never had to reconfigure 3rd-party apps/extensions because they stopped working."
Same here. I haven't watched an ad in years either. I even forgot Youtube ran ads at all until recently when it became a hot topic for debate. I don't reconfigure anything. I open web browsers, and start browsing.
"YT Premium is the best subscription I have."
Good for you. I don't care. I never asked your opinion about it.
"And by additional features i mean things like playing videos with the screen locked on my phone, and being able to resume a video between desktop website and my phone app seamlessly"
those ares standard free features of youtube. I can seemlessly pickup videos wehre i left off on different computers, phones, apps, and even browsers, so long as I'm logged in.
" and knowing that the creators i watch are being compensated"
you can do that without a youtube subscription. By paying YT, only a fraction of your fee goes to creators. or you could donate to them directly, that would be even better.
" the ability to use YT Music,"
most musicians post their songs on Youtube free. And I have my own music I listen to anyways. my own playlists. I own my music outright.
"which also includes all the custom/fan-made tracks uploaded to normal YT."
yeah, those are free on youtube.
Everything you list i get, for free. Most of it is free even without adblockers and without a YT subscription. I don't even run adblockers in all of my web browsers and I still don't see YT ads at all.
