It doesnt really matter to me how they pay for their expenses. It doesnt change the fact that youtube loses its value as an education/entertainment platform to me if they attempt to enforce their adblock-free policy. My choice to support individual creators is none of their business. If its an unsustainable business model for them its odd that its been around for a decade but its really not my concern. If they are going to shut down because Alphabet just cant afford to host it anymore then I would probably try to scrape as much valuable content as possible but for now Ill continue to block ads and support who I want to outside of googles ecosystem.
