I watched a video by a successful streamer giving advice to new streamers on how to build a career in that industry. He said that all these ads and partner programs aren't even worth it, unless you're one of the top 1%. The pay is relatively low (the platform takes a large cut) and you often have to sign over exclusive rights. He said that donations (using external services) and most importantly Patreon are the best way to go. So I just block all ads and sponsor segments, and donate a few bucks here or there.
