Yeah, the YTers I follow all are now using internally sourced ads where they get the money. While I will never use or want Hello Fresh or Manscape, I at least know the monies paid for those placements are going directly to the YTer I'm watching.

The downsides is that you need to be a fairly popular YTer to get such funds. Which is creating a high bar for new creators to start up.
