minus-square@Adanisi@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglish2•edit-210 months agoBe real: do content creators even earn that much from ad revenue? Or is most of their income from sponsors or fan support on platforms like patreon? From what little they earn from ad revenue, a miniscule amount of that is lost from people using adblockers, too.

minus-square@Adanisi@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglish1•edit-210 months agoAny small channel earns basically nothing from ad revenue. Any big channel won’t feel a dent from a handful viewers not viewing ads. There’s no harm either way. And, for the end user, I think the privacy and freedom benefits outweigh any benefits of using Google software.
