Don't creators get paid based on how many ads are shown/clicked? They are probably excited by the idea that their revenue will increase by (% of people who use adblockers).
The goals of creators and youtube are more closely aligned than the goals of creators and their audience.
- LordDragonfang 3y agoYoutube-served ad revenue is a pittance compared to in-video sponsorships. Every time the served ads piss someone off enough to not continue watching (and therefore deny the video a recorded "view") it probably costs the creator more than they would get from the slightly increased revenue of more aggressive ads across dozens of viewers.
- ta1243 3y agoNot really, they get far more from sponsors and merch
- yogurtboy 3y agoThis is not true at all. As others have mentioned, sponsored spots get a producer much more revenue, and unskippable preroll and midroll ads are likely to make a person just not watch the video at all (which in turn makes the sponsored spots less profitable).
