There's a lite version that's only for the ads.
It's cheaper than the full 19.99.
While that might still be too much, I just wanted to point out that if you don't want ads, it doesn't cost the full 20quid.
This was news to me so I went looking and couldn't find it on youtube. Reading articles seems to indicate it is only available in certain regions and at certain times. I finally found the link to the page (https://www.youtube.com/premiumlite) and confirmed it's not available for me in the US at least.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/premiumlite
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
