Even when you paid for YouTube premium, you still have to deal with baked in sponsorship, which dilutes the value of the subscription. Those sponsorships are 2min of 10 min videos.
Besides that, many creators pad their videos to 10min mark to get adroll. "Hey guys. This is ... Please like the video, subscribe to the channel". This is especially annoying in tutorial videos, where they take 10min to explain how to crop a photo for example. You get to the end, just to discover they used a slightly older version of program.
(That's why I love lockpickinglawyer. 2 min videos straight to the point.)
The problem is, the current reward structure push creators to pad their content and add sponsorships. YouTube Premium doesn't address those problems.
- cercatrova 5y agoCheck out SponsorBlock, it removes in-video sponsorship ads
- DavideNL 5y agoYea SponsorBlock is awesome. I probably would’ve abandoned YouTube if this wouldn’t exist… https://sponsor.ajay.app/ https://sponsor.ajay.app/
