- abenga 4mo agoI probably watch too many channels to pay them each outside youtube, it will become quickly logistically unmanageable, if not unaffordable. The maximum I can do is probably 5 channels or so.
- salamandars 4mo agoIf there are that many channels you watch regularly, what slice of the pie does each one get from your youtube subscription, a few cents? You could possibly pick one channel you like each month and give it a one-time $5 donation, which would be equivalent to years of ad revenue from a single viewer.
