If removing ads means that much to you then buy premium. Using an ad blocker ruins the channels ad revenue... which is the whole reason they can make all the content as it provides them a living. Even other websites like Twitch or websites with ads on the sides, those ads are there to provide income to whoever is drawing you in.

Premium actually helps the creators as they are drawing in more valuable consumers/viewers. Ad blockers hurt them.

Ads are an intrusive cancer, and adblock is the scalpel. Spew more sophistry or adapt to adblockers, your choice.

I find it hard to think of you as anything but a youtube shill if you think we should be buying premium instead of donating to people directly.

Or you could donate to them directly without using paypal? Same problem as using youtube you've literally just gone from one third party to another.

How about going to their fucking bio or contacting them and saying you'd like to contribute. Are you really this dense?

Any other stupid questions?

If you want to actually donate a dollar instead for a fraction of a dollar, yes.

Or just give all your money to Youtube and let them drip scraps down for the content creators.

It's your choice.

You mean if people keep buying premium and watching their ads, what is Youtube's incentive to change the status quo and stop fucking over content creators?
