"I pay to remove ads so my experience with a neutered adblocker isn't as bad" is a weird take.

If you think the end game is companies deciding they're comfortable with removing ads in exchange for a subscription, rather than a subscription with a gradually increasing amount of ads, then I have a bridge to sell you.

I support the creators I watch by donating to them directly.



I use UB for all the other websites, not YT, it's a weird take to associate UB usage and experience with a single domain.

Me too, on top of the monthly fee that gets distributed to those I watch. More for every creator, even those I only watch once or sporadically


I mentioned multiple domains...? I said it also impacts sponsored listings on food delivery platforms. Those used to be blocked and, more broadly, the ability to manually block specific elements of a webpage was lost with the transition to UB lite.
