Like was already said, I'm considering cancelling YouTube Premium too but our numbers won't really matter. The reports of worsening Firefox compatibility almost some me in and I didn't even notice.
I have a family plan with my brother and cousin on it. I know they're cracking down on sharing with people who don't live together, but if they cut them I'm done. I'll figure it out. And I'm probably petty enough to comment about it on everyone's videos that I follow. (Which also won't really matter, but I'll feel better voicing the discontent.)
