Yeah, totally understand, it’s just a little bizarre to have someone put down their cat to tell you about a VPN. Like you say, it’s not necessarily their first choice. I think I made it sound too negative, that’s my only criticism of sponsors and generally they’re okay. They’re just great if the creator can do it very naturally.
I’ve never blocked sponsors and never cared enough to. They need it to make money for providing useful content and that’s okay. I prefer it to targeted, back-to-back ads.
Yeah definitely. It is much better than tracker filled ads. But for me, I mostly skip the sponsor segments just because I really don’t like the advertisements. Especially from the channels like “LTT”. But I sometimes wait for it to end when I watch a video from “The Linux Experiment” for example.
