When you block ads on YouTube, the ads are deleted. This has the problem of not giving creators money, forcing you to actually spend $10/mo or whatever the average Patreon subscription is. What if there was an option for an ad to play in the background while a black rectangle covers the screen while temporarily muting the browser tab? (Since the ad still plays in the background, the creator still gets money, allowing you to be a freeloader) edit: peertube has no ads
Honestly no idea, I don’t know much about alternative platforms at all. Only just started to look into other options myself!
I’d never framed it in terms of price per view but I do love a good stat so no worries lol, was interesting.
