I had youtube when I was watching a lot of videos on sailing...I cancelled after a few weeks, as it was $13/mo

I would have just let it ride for $3/mo without even thinking.

although they will track you as much as they can. And the price really doesn't justify as it doesn't have background playback according to article.

Good grief. Just cut out the dead weight like those dreadful "originals" and youtube music

Or you can also just create an iOS shortcut to open videos in PiP from the Share menu with no ads…

I would buy YouTube Premium before I’d pay for Netflix if they didn’t constantly mess with their creators.

Are there any links or technical details on how this works?

Read the description on how to set it up, it involves a tiny bit of extra work: https://shortcutsgallery.com/shortcuts/youtube-pip/
