I don't care who's serving the ads, I don't want to watch ads period. I will pay for the content where possible though. I dont think youtube taking 45% considering the crazy infrastructure provided is that strange. Maybe 45% is still too much, but i don't think 55% sounds like "shit".

I forgot that the people I watch are far less mainstream. They survive on Patreon and sponsorships because they're constantly demonetized, thus my perception it pays shit.

That's fair enough. Didn't think of that angle which is a pretty relevant one considering how easy it seems to be to get demonetized.
