@taylorhutcherson100 O they are very much part of the conversation. No viewers, no views. How's that for entitlement? It's not like we don't have options. TV still works, there's streaming services. And the weather looks pretty nice.

It is a balancing act for them. They have to keep viewers, advertisers AND content creators happy. I recognize this is not easy. They deal with conflicting interests and pissing off either group will hurt revenue.

Well... maybe... they (YouTube) found that users were turning their backs on YouTube altogether because the ads got too numerous, frequent and intrusive and this is their response. Which sounds pretty good to me as a user. Just over half a year ago I was fed up and chose to start paying for Premium because I am a heavy user, I value the content and I can afford it. Had there not been this option I would not be here. I suspect lots of other people chose the other route and found other ways to waste their time.

@vincei4252 What tricked your excuse for a brain into believing I claim YouTube is succeeding in keeping content creators happy?
