    You keep imagining some way how YT could get cheaper for you.

    But in fact, ads are highly profitable, and if you buy a premium there’s a very transparent revenue share model. 70% of your money goes directly to the creators.

    All your wishes are already fulfilled, you’re just poor and are trying to justify not paying with imagined arguments.

      The thing that bothers me is the revenue doesnt go to creators that I watch. Its all pooled and divided out by view count across the entire platform. Which is bs. I dont want my money going to the top channels that i have zero interest in. A better system is dividing it out to the channels I view.

      Thus why adblocking and patreon is highly popular…
