I didn't know the channels get some of the revenue. Do you get to influence who the money goes to? Like a twitch prime sub?

It replaces the ad revenue the channel would otherwise have gotten from your view, at a higher rate than an ad impression.

Basically a percentage of your premium is divvied out based on watch time. When I signed up it was half of my payment went to creators, I don't know the current split though

I'm not entirely certain, but as far as I'm aware it is divided based on watch-time.

On your watch-time? I mean then it's cool, cause you don't even have to do anything. On the other hand I would probably have to log out to watch content I don't want to support financially.
