Comment on Lemmy users when I mention I pay for Youtube Premium
Maven@lemmy.world 1 year agoThis works fine but the main reason I personally have premium is to support the YouTubers I watch. Adblock gets rid of their revenue while premium pays them MORE than just ads do and now I don’t have to worry about it on any platform.

Premium still gives them hardly anything. Subscribing to their Patreon is better because they get all your money, minus the small fee.

True but I can afford premium. I can’t afford every single persons patreon.

It gives them a loot more than ad watchers though. Especially on longer videos (it’s based on watch time)
