I watched YouTube ads.
When they got to be too much I stopped watching.
Then I added uBlock Origin and NoScript (even on YouTube I block some scripts) and went back to watching.
When bazillions of content creators started over-creating content just for revenue, and not to provide value, I started watching less and less.
Now content creators are producing even more garbage via AI, and now I only watch a very few real-world content creators and videos more than 2 years old. Everything else I watch on other sites. If a content creator also posts to other sites, I watch them there and not on YT.
