      Honestly: I’d rather pay for YT and pirate Netflix.
      The amount of Entertainment I get from YT exceeds the scale of Netflix and I use it daily at 2-3h per day.

      And while yes, it’s free, I can also support the creators with a better click price than a regular click.
      Is it a better solution then the respective patreon/whatever? Nope
      Do I want to pay 5€/month or video each time? Fuck no. I am not king Midas.

        Yup, that’s how I see it too. I don’t like seeing ads, the creators do at least get more money, and the actual value I get out of YouTube is pretty high
