That's what I had going. I was fine with supporting the creators that I subscribed to. I have a whitelist on my ad blockers for sites that I support and have decent ads (if it looks like "Ow! My Balls" from Idiocracy, I block them). But, YouTube added WAY too many ads, unskippable ads, ads everywhere. It's too much, and the creators get less and less. I block everything I can on YouTube now. Some are still getting through, but most of the time I'm good. Still some great creators, and I'm going to start downloading the ones I really want to keep for reference.
I sometimes like to subscribe to the YT channel of some creators for a few months. Get some bonus content and no ads (if no ad blocker).
