I don't mind unskippable ads so much when I am watching a 10 minutes video. But a lot of information these days is mostly on youtube as opposed to text content. For example, how to change an obscure setting in windows or how to replace an alternator. But these videos also usually have a lot of background fluff. It's infuriating to skip back and forth to find the one relevant bit of info. If it takes 3 attempts to find the right timestamp, that's potentially up to 3 skippable ads and 3 unskippable ads before you get there. Ironically videos with misinformation get demonetized and you can consume those much more conveniently.
