This also somewhat appears in the Orconomics book series (very enjoyable fantasy satire with some heart to it), where the elves in that universe are virtually immortal and don’t die by aging. Instead they just slowly forget their previous lives if they live that long.

One of the main characters is an Elf who used to be an adventurer of great renown, but is a bit washed up and is constantly comparing themselves with the legends of what they used to be. Also applies that if you were an Elven prince or princess, eventually you age out and get moved lower socially to any newer born royalty.

I always hate how well this works…

Also I hope you enjoy manually breathing now as in retaliation

Yeah, I don’t see why people have a hard time with a platform trying to support itself. Video hosting is expensive and there is a reason why there are few competitors that allow such open upload limits that is easy for anyone to use. Right now it is a good price for what it gives since YouTube Music is somewhat decent.

A decent share of the Premium cost goes towards actual channels that you watch, if more people had the attitude to pay for the service, we would probably see less ad integration for a lot of creators and they could actually be paid from the Premium subscribers
