me: *opens up one (1) video on youtube*

youtube:

why the FUCK arent you using YOUTUBE RED you PIECE OF SHIT. watch some fucking CABLE TV on this SHIT ASS WEBSITE. we wont put ANY ADS on your videos EVEN THOUGH YOU ALREADY GET THAT WITH ADBLOCK. BUY OUR PRODUCT

Adblock prevent your views from being counted towards the content creator so using Adblock on YouTube is equivalent of piracy essentially. Also using YouTube Red get you a shit ton of original series and ensures that your money goes towards the people you actually watch. Support content creators and stop using Adblock

However, youtube only gives creators a very, very small amount of money by your views. Most content creators also have things like patreons, pay pals, or other ways you can give them money directly (which they get a bigger cut of than yt red), so depending on how many channels you watch, you’re probably better off giving one or two dollars directly. 

views do more than just allocate money to them. It also effects their channel due to the youtube algorithm. just either turn off adblock or get youtube red.
