How much of my premium subscription money would go to creators? That's an honest question. Google doesn't give even a vague hint as to what proportion of the fee is rev-shared. I suspect it is rather less than what I would like, especially since Youtube Premium includes their music service which I have zero interest in.

Due to this uncertainty I prefer to support creators I watch via Patreon.

65% would go to creators based on minutes watched.

How many Patreon subscriptions do you have? Are those the only videos you watch?

Citation? I've never seen Google give a hard number like that.
