Imagine paying for youtube 😂 Giving the big bully more money.

I pay for YouTube because it does give more revenue than watching an ad to the creators. I pay 6$ and watch hundreds of hours monthly. If it was more than that I will consider alternatives and AdBlock (what I was doing before started my sub). To each their own :)
They don't have patreon?
I don’t want to set up Patreon for every creator I’m watching. Often I just watch one or two videos from them and that’s it.
Some do, others don't and as someone else said i am not going to make Patreon and do monthly sub to each of them. As I said I watch hundreds of hours per month and it's not from 4-5 creators. For me it's worth - I pay for the infrastructure and some support for the people I watch. If it's free for you it means someone else is paying.
It’s the equivalent of $16.50 a month where I live and that is not an insignificant proportion of my monthly income. The adverts are constantly repeating and often for products and services that are actual scams. I firmly believe as soon as enough people pay… we’ll have to pay more or they will show us a smaller number of “specially selected” ads.
The more you pay, the more advertisers recognize you as a lucrative crowd and wanna get in your face.
It's still Google, which is basically just another EvilCorp Inc. Probably donating more directly to the creator would give them more money than going through Google.

do you think the signature you include in your posts have a tangible effect?
Do you disagree with this comment? https://alexandrite.app/lemmy.world/comment/9806517
I think it's hilariously naïve. The comments will be scraped anyway, and there's nothing you can do about it
It was enough to convince a few others to do the same, however pointless it is. They've been told before, but don't care either way and will keep doing it.
Of course I agree with the comment. I take all my ~~copyright~~ advice from random comments on the internet. Especially the ones that use expletives. Those are the best comments to take advice from.

If the France sports dns blocking has proved anything it’s that most people just don’t bother. And if it doesn’t work just accept it instead of just changing a DNS setting in a computer.
