      Yes, a premium view is more valuable to YouTube’s ad impressions. I struggle to believe any of that value actually makes it into the content creators pocket.

      I much prefer subscribing to a content creator’s personal patreon (or equivalent) as opposed to lining Google’s pockets.

        Bingo, support creators you like directly so you can be sure they get the revenue instead of a portion of it after Google puts it through the wringer.
