Youtube might be the only place I actually don't mind ads. Some creators on youtube are extremely good at providing valuable content in short form - I use it primarily as a learning platform, whether I am doing wood work, learning how to fix something at home, or learning about a new topic. I would rather continue to support these creators by watching ads on their own channel than paying for a subscription that covers everything.
It's an invaluable resource and until there's something better taking the ads away takes part of their income away.

- izacus 6y agoWhich doesn't cover the cost of video hosting, transcoding and streaming. Or the cost of other software development of YouTube. If you'd ever work on anything close to video streaming industry you'd find out that the costs of delivering video to the world is massive. And paying for those services is how you make them sustainable (and add competition).
