I don't mind sponsors tbh, especially if they're nicely integrated into the video's content.

I'm glad he gets the creative expression but he keeps shilling raycons and mediocre VPNs. I get he has to get paid but I wish there was anyone who had the advertising money to spend on sponsorships but wasn't garbage, but I guess having that level of advertising spend kind of precludes you from spending it on product development or high quality components

its pretty clear from the way he makes those ads that hes not really endorsing them though

*edit - In my opinion

But from my experience thats basically the only channel that does that. All the other sponsors are just ad-text read by same voice as the rest of the video.
