This will be the death of YouTube for me. I pay for YouTube premium so this day may never come for me.

    That didn't keep Amazon from adding ads to the paid version of Prime and making a higher paid tier. How much easier is it for Google to implement the same?

    And when that happened I stoped watching prime and just put on my eye patch & tricorn 🏴‍☠️…

    Though I’m still paying for the content I just watch it differently than intended 🤷‍♂️

    Again it would be dead to me if it happened. I wouldn't pay more for what I get now.

    Empty words, you would pay them whatever they demand of you, and you know it.

    Not as bad as paying for Twitter, but close.

    The biggest reason I pay for it is supposedly creators I watch get paid significantly more than someone who sits through ads without skipping. I also don't really watch regular TV.

    I mean, that's why I'm on Patreon. But fuck YouTube.

    Yeah, I know it's not an excuse but I'm lazy and this guarantees even the individuals I watch irregularly gets their share. I've heard it even pays out if it's demonetized (don't take my word on that one though.)
