That is kind of how it works. Running a platform like that does however cost money therefore I don't mind too much paying a little. -

@cmconseils hmm or rather I block YouTubers ads and if one slips through and is an ad for a legit product/service and not some AI, stocks or crypto scam I make sure to not buy that product/service.
Do your part to make Alphabet/Google as little money as possible.

@springdiesel Ratthi poked absently at the food left on his plate, then slid it over to Arada so she could finish it off. “That solid-state screen interface, I’ve seen those in historical displays.”

@renardboy @Legit_Spaghetti @cmconseils add sponsorblock as well. It uses community notes to auto skip the YouTuber ad reads and promos.

SponsorBlock is a crowdsourced browser extension to skip sponsor segments in YouTube videos.
(sponsor.ajay.app)
Its amazing how well it works. Right after any big youtuber releases a video, it skips over them. Even smaller youtubers will ad skip within a few minutes of release, and if not, the plugin let's you easy annotate the start - stop to help others.
