I saw today new “merch” section below comments. I’m a premium users for a reason, I want 0 ads.

I just canceled my subscription and moved to yattee / invidious for good.

    No, I genuinely liked features that others hated such as AI summary. Do whatever you want but gimme that disable option.

    YouTube has done many good things and I see their platform is a god sent at least for me. But ads is where I draw the line.

    I feel they’re planning to reduce creators share of revenue and compensate them with promoting their merch.

      Yeah I wouldn’t argue against all the things YouTube has made possible to, benefitted and offered others. I have used YouTube actively too.
      There’s always good and bad to everything.
