I feel like this is the best money in streaming. I mostly watch you tube, and primarily on the tv and phone in the app. Frankly I would prefer to have much more of the internet paid for with you know money instead of ads and not use a blocker.

You tube music also has a much better algorithmic playlist than Apple Music.

I agree completely but you won't get much support on this site as people don't think about how things can cost money to run.

Which is weird considering how the fediverse is paid for at the moment appears to mostly be people paying out of their own pockets.

That's great for now. Scale that up to billions of videos and that won't be sustainable. Video hosting, especially at the scale that youtube does it, is incredibly expensive.
