What’s the issue with PIA? I’ve used it for quite a while and am quite happy with it.
The choice that surprised me was them recommending 1Password ($40/year) over Bitwarden ($10/year, solid free plan).

Basically any VPN YouTubers shill is not going to result in a net gain in privacy (depending on your threat model) because many of them sell your data themselves, eagerly log traffic and comply with warrants, etc. Also their server IPs are usually known and blocked from various services.
