Somehow paying for Netflix is fine but god forbid I want to watch a 10 hour loop of the DS9 intro without ads.

This works fine but the main reason I personally have premium is to support the YouTubers I watch. Adblock gets rid of their revenue while premium pays them MORE than just ads do and now I don't have to worry about it on any platform.

Premium still gives them hardly anything. Subscribing to their Patreon is better because they get all your money, minus the small fee.

True but I can afford premium. I can't afford every single persons patreon.

They're better off for life if you donate the money you'd spend with yt once for each, once per month. Many will have their turns.

That is a ton of work, especially when not every YTer has Patreon or channel memberships. Afaik, YTers do appreciate Premium views since it pays way more than ads.
