Why? It gives the creators more money than watching ads and you get no ads on Smart TVs etc.

I mean yes you can watch youtube with vanced, Sponsorblock etc pretty much without ads everywhere, but because I hate ads and did that I like supporting the channels without having to manage a ton of little donations

I hate corpos, so I do what I can to not support them. The creators that I watch I donate directly to or purchase their merch/products. That supports them far more than the fractions of a cent that me watching ads or paying for a premium service gives them.
