So we finally signed up to Nebula yesterday, and all it took was the triumphant return of Tom Scott.

And yeah, that's a great first episode. The health and safety nerd in me wasn't terribly happy about the workshop, but it's entertaining.
As a bonus, I finally get to watch @notjustbikes new show as well.

I'd be interested to see the subscription numbers for Nebula before and after this episode was released. Tom is very, very popular, and it's currently only £30 for a year's subscription.
Had a brief scan through it on the Apple TV app last night, and I was surprised by how many of the people I watch on YouTube are already on Nebula, so that's nice. And it means that I don't have to spend too much time fucking about with alternative ways to watch YT on Apple TV without having to pay an extortionate fee or tolerate a frankly unreasonable amount of adverts.

TURNS OUT, GOOGLE, THAT IF YOU OFFER A GOOD SERVICE FOR A REASONABLE PRICE, PEOPLE ARE LESS LIKELY TO TRY AND PIRATE YOUR SHIT.

Seriously though; a few years back I discovered that you could sign up to YouTube Premium using a VPN in a country where it was considerably less expensive. As a result, I had a family plan from Ukraine that cost me about £6 a month.
And I was happy with that.
I could watch what I liked on Apple TV without adverts, and so could T on their own profile. It was great. We watched a lot of YT together.
But then YT closed that loophole and shitcanned our subscription. They wanted £20 a month to continue. I'm not paying twenty fucking quid just for YouTube. £240 a year. Astonishing. More than all of the streaming services.
And yeah, you get YT Music included, but I never, ever used it because I use Apple Music.
So instead, I put together a little script that downloads using yt-dlp into a Jellyfin server.
And Google then got £0 from me.
Fuck 'em.

@DJDarren @notjustbikes I started watching Jetlag when Tom appeared on it, then signed up to Nebula to watch more jetlag and now I'm getting more Tom on Nebula too, so seems like a win-win situation.
