So you just... never buy anything? Do you shoplift your candy bars, too, since they are probably made by a company that makes more than enough already?
YouTube is trying to move away from a shit business model, to a much more fair one. One that's more fair for the platform, more fair for the creator, and more fair for the user. Because guess what, taking shit for free, was never fair. I'm not paying to support google. I'm paying to support common sense.
Ads are shit. They are shit for the platform running them, they are shit for the creator, and they are especially shit for the user. Fuck em. Actual subscriptions net so much more for all involved. As long as YT doesn't try to double dip like twitch, hulu, and now netflix, I will continue to support a move away from them.
The size of a business doesn't come into that. A mom and pop car service shop that scams their customers with technobabble, would be just as deserving of bankruptcy as facebook is.
And paying for premium isn't mutually exclusive with donations, or supporting through patreon (which guess what, also takes a cut), when you find creators who you think deserve it. But you can't claim to be righteous if you pay for the food a farmer grew, while the truck driver who actually brought it to you is standing right there, unpaid. No, his cut should not be large, but he should get one.
