Also check out what they’re doing if you happened to pay through Apple….
Makes sense. Never pay through Apple if there's any other option. Can't fault Google for that.
But even then, $16 per month for Youtube!? An adblocker is cheaper.
Thats because apple adds 30% if you buy through the ios app.
Every. Single. Month. F O R E V E R.
For providing absolutely nothing
Yeah, it's... interesting. Especially with donations.
Apple takes a 30% cut, then Google does so as well from the remainder.
Feeling generous? Congrats, more than a half goes to corporations.
Why doesn't Google just pay it and absorb the cost like shippers do with tariffs?

Ah good point!
