How long did that last

OH you mean per user.

I need 3 accounts worth so I thought that was for an actual family plan!

Yeah I gave up a couple of weeks ago (after getting the cancel email again) and went official.

I set up a family plan, which equally splits out at £40 per user per year.

I kept two for myself, me & the Mrs. The other four I sold on MM in the space of a day.
 
Kicked out of Algeria after 6 months, waited the couple of weeks for the sub to end, signed up again through Algeria in about 30 seconds. Let's see how long it lasts this time.
 
My premium Lite trial has come to an end, I'm just going to continue with it. Annoying but it is what it is. I watch more on youtube than anywhere else.
 
I've noticed "Playables" appear in my Youtube feed today. They look like mini games/versions/clones of existing handheld games, at a quick glance.

Is this a new feature for premium users, or am I seeing it because i'm in the UK at the moment?

Not a new feature but it only appears sporadically in my feed for no real rhyme or reason. I can't tell you how long it has been in the Explore menu list.

I just RDP'd to my computer in Spain, just to double check, and I can't see it on there, but I can on my phone and laptop in London! So maybe it has been around for ages and is not in Spain for whatever reason. I use YT heavily enough that it's almost impossible it wouldn't be shown to me unless it was country specific!

I tried some out what feels like a few months ago so it has been around a while. The ones I tried were awful though.

I tried one, to be fair the graphics seemed HD/crisp/shiny, but they are just low budget minigames. The type of stuff that was big in the Macromedia Flash days!

First Netflix, now YT. Just stick to video and leave gaming to someone else!

Yeah, at least Netflix did invest in quality games and try to make it a bit of a perk. What YT were thinking with this, I really have no idea. I can't imagine anyone is playing them and thinking it makes the sub worthwhile... and surely even kids would rather just play Fortnite. Who knows.
