Thank you _so_ much for that recommendation. I've been so frustrated that even authors I like have started to create clickbait.

Are you worried if everyone blocks revenue generating activities they will stop making the content you like?

Why would you want content other people pick?

Even if youtube disappeared today, there would be more "content" available in the world than I could ever consume.

No. I prefer watching people who don't do it for the money.

Some of those people are in it for the money. Your interest won't matter to them.

Their interest doesn't matter to me. I don't watch ads.

It should because you watch their content. What they decide matters to you.

Right now what you like doesn't matter. You are a ghost roaming.

I will happily continue to roam. When I don't enjoy content, I won't watch.

But I don't watch ads.
