My favourite channels on Youtube, once they become large enough they start to include sponsoring/ads. Production quality goes up, but my enjoyment and trust goes down. I prefer the old hobbyist internet over this manipulative and shallow ad-driven one. So I install adblockers on every system and I don't understand people that look at ads to support content creators. If you want to support, then why don't you use Patreon or subscriptions? (I wish micropayments had worked out)
