YouTube is by no means the primary reason I run my ad blocker. That it works on YouTube is a side bonus, mostly useful if I need to watch something in an incognito window or while I'm signed into my work account. I pay for Premium on my main account mostly to support the creators. (The good ones tend to do the Patreon thing, and I much prefer to chip in there given the choice, but not everyone on YT does that.)
- climb_stealth 3y agoFully agree with you there. I can't use the internet without an ad blocker.
- blueblimp 3y agoI hate ads and use an ad blocker, but I also pay for ad removal on any site I use regularly that offers the option (which includes YouTube). This seems like a reasonable balance between having the internet be usable while also supporting the services I use.
