I posted this question because I once saw a tweet that said something like:
“If you use adblock, you don’t care about creator’s point blank”
What is your opinion on this? Do you agree with them?

The “If you use adblock, you don’t care about creator’s point blank” is such a stupid argument and complete misunderstanding of the economics. There are other far more efficient ways to support creators than watching ads. Watching an hour of ads will generate a few cents for the creators and orders of magnitude more for the monopolistic platforms that host the content. The ads model doesn’t fairly reward creators. I guarantee I give more to creators (via various means) than the misdirected “creator saviour” that wrote that ridiculous quote.
pretty sure it was linus from linus tech tips
Linus is condescending and rude to his staff on camera, I would only guess he’s worse off camera. He also makes a lot of confidently ignorant statements about tech he doesn’t understand. Don’t get me wrong, he’s a bright fellow, he just thinks he’s smarter than he actually is which ends up making him look stupid.
