It's pretty wild how many people in this thread (and in general) don't see youtubers as a business selling a product.
Its great if you want to buy stuff from your favorite content creators shop, but the shop is there to make money. It makes money for their business. What do we call it when a business goes out of their way to show consumers their products in the hopes that they'll purchase something? an advertisement. This isn't something debatable lol, it's literally the definition of the word.
Its awesome if you wanna support your favorite content creators, it's totally OK if you don't personally mind seeing their shop below the video, a simple toggle would let you keep that. But an ad is an ad, and people are right to be frustrated that they're being shown ads when they specifically paid extra money not to be shown them.
YouTube is also showing products below video listings in the home page. Even before you click on it.
See here:
I pay for YT Premium. This is excessive.
Because youtubers make products with love. /s
%100 agree.
