I'm not going to bash this or anything, I see why people dislike the sponsor segments, it's advertising after all, but as someone who honestly could not afford to donate to every single channel I enjoy watching, I'm glad content creators have a way to make money while still providing content essentially for free. I'd rather sit and watch a silly ad than just not have access to the content because I couldn't afford to donate that month or something.

I pay for YouTube Premium, which goes to creators, so it's extra annoying to still have to watch a million awkward VPN pitches.
