Yes, I forgot to clarify that. I decided to pay for a nebula subscription, which is creator owned, and to try and stop using YouTube as much as I can.

I even got a nice discount on it from the sponsor segment of one of the creators I follow

I know this isn’t an option everyone can take, but for the ones who can, I think it sends a clearer message to YouTube and Google than any ad blocker, if you don’t respect me as a viewer I’ll stop using your service altogether. The ad blocker is still a great option though!
