What people call "demonetized" on YouTube is actually called "no or limited ads" inside of YouTube Studio. It's not Google but the advertisers who don't want their Coca-Cola ads shown on those videos. YouTube Premium views still pay out on those videos since they're not ad views.
If everyone paid for YouTube Premium and didn't use the ad-supported product, then advertiser boycotts would have no power.
Since alternatives that manage traffic in a better way exist, such as peertube and odysee, google can burn in hell, it's a shitty company that slows down competition, I don't give anything to a company that spends its budget on bullshit as manifest V3.
I pay the creators with PayPal or Patreon, not with 70% of a subscription.
If only they didn't demonetize creators who accidentally say whatever SJWs don't like.
Or remove the slowdowns they deliberately applied to those who use Firefox (it's not a conspiracy, they really did it).
It would just be enough that Google aren't sons of bitches and I would probably also be happy to pay youtube premium.
I prefer to pay my favorite creators with donations, patreon or merchandise.
