I’m getting close to paying, YouTube has figured out some clever way to keep AdGuard on iOS from properly blocking ads and it’s super annoying. But I mean when it’s trivial for a technical user to download a few adblockers why pay, right?

That is one of the reasons I love using a real computer. I can install firefox with ublock origin and sponsorblock. Bomm. No more ads, no more tracking and no more in-video ads.
I would only get the first by paying, and I have found videos without ads so more more relaxing.

You also get the “bonus” of full quality videos on mobile. The safari version of YouTube is limited to 720p and music videos 360p.

Well, the web version in Firefox on Android works with 2160p.
Apple is still not supporting any free codecs on the web. Apparently they actually do have a hardware VP9 decoder in the newest chips but it's only exposed to the YouTube app?? https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/apple-m1-vp9-av1-decodi...
