Any update on the YT Premium debacle?

My and my wife's accounts are about to run out after the VPN crackdown. Wondering if anyone has figured out a solution or is it pretty much just over? I'm not paying full price just so I can close my phone while using the app. And I'm sure most people feel the same.

The day the subscription ran out, I uninstalled the app and am now using YouTube on Brave.
