Comment on Damn it YouTube!
FelixCress@lemmy.world 2 days agoI was just trying to illustrate to others how it would actually be worth not having ads blasted in your face
Yes, 100%. It is all matter of the context. If I was using YouTube at least the same number of hours as netflix (at least - as YouTube does not create anything themselves) I would definitely consider it. Or if the price was much, much lower than netflix.

Another part of the equation for me is that the creators get a larger piece of the cash pie. YouTube still gets their cut from the premium membership, just as it does with ads. But the piece that goes to the the ad budget goes to the creator instead.
