Particularly those who are less gifted in public speaking, video photography, sound editing, musical taste and have a face for radio.

Certainly not a reference to the OP.

Doesn't work on youtube here in the states, you pay their monthly grift or you get an ad in stream every every 4-6 minutes depending on the vid and your watching choices.

This is nothing against the OP or other honest content suppliers I feel for them and the struggle, there's just SO much clickbait trash on it it's insulting. Even long time old solid suppliers have changed up, most of what they do now is mug for the camera to get traffic.

I think I was one of your first 100 subscribers back in early 2021(?). I've enjoyed all of your 300+ videos in their entirety. I've yet to see a single ad/commercial while viewing your channel. As a creator, do you have a say in whether or not your videos are interrupted by ads?

Thank you so much for all your support and checking the videos. Means a world to me for real and yes a lot of work goes into it for sure.

Up till recently there was no way to control or adjust the ads (or I didnt know about it). Just 2 months ago YouTube gave some tools to creators to “manipulate” the frequency and type of the ads but I never tried it yet nor plan to do that. As far as I am aware each piece of content that is 8min or longer will get 2 round of ads while anything shorter will allow only one round of ads.

If you dont care about video monetization yes there is option to choose such option and I believe ads wont show up

If someone is focused on income from ads yes there is potential to overwhelm viewers with junk so maybe this is the reason for experience described by one of the posters here.

I would be happy to send you some stickers as token of my appreciation for your support if you send me your address via PM. I just passed 4000 subscribers recently and think about maybe doing website soon but I have to say YT already keeps me so busy on top of my normal life responsibilities that I question viability of this website idea.

Sneak peak of the thumbnail for upcoming video 👍😀 just finished editing this one yesterday.

Stopped watching YouTube since they longer allow Adblock.

Good thing because I turned off my TV 4 years ago. And I haven’t touched the remote yet. I don’t even know where the remote is. Most likely I’m going to throw my tv, since I’m not used to watching it.

Rumble.

YouTube is at war right now with ad blockers. You need to get off the Google Chromeopoly and use a non Chromium based browser (Firefox) with the uBlock Origin extension to continue watching YouTube without ads....for now.

I used to stream music but tired of the commercials in the middle of the songs. Ive blown the dust off my vinyl and CD collection and went old school also I can load my IPOD with the digital turntable feature I can convert vinyl to my digital device etc. But I agree YT is as bad as cable TV and they are pretty bad. I had said to the wife" you remember when the selling point of cable was no commercials?"
