Im not holding my breath for someone to start hosting petabytes of videos for free. I don’t like ads, so I’m just going to pay.
It's also cool that YouTube Premium pays a bigger cut to creators when compared against regular YouTube ads.
I do like that.
How much? I doubt it's more than just enough to make people think that, "oh that's nice", while doing some absurd minimum...
If you want to support Youtubers, then buy their merch or something like that.
The cost of supporting every YouTuber I watch with merch greatly outpaces the cost of a few years of premium
Maybe, but at least it doesn't give money to google.
