But you'll use shady ass Google's platform and circumvent any means of the creators on it getting paid for your view.

It's like if you could take an Uber get the ride to where you're going then not pay and blame it on Uber the giant corporation that shouldn't earn a dime. You still stiffing the driver.

You know damn well you don't carry all these patreon sub for all these creators. A YTP sub is the simplest way to assure they get something from your view.
And why do you think shady ass google is letting me using their platform for free? Out of charity?
By me using Google services, they already getting paid. Google alredy has enough money to correctly paying those "creators".

Once again, Google is freely taking my data and using it/selling it, why should I give them a bag again?
If you wanna "help" a creator, you can directly give them money

Why do you have to say anything more than I just want free shit and I don't want to be inconvenienced by ads and could give a fuck less about the creators? All that anti-Google stuff you talking is nonsense. If you were honestly against Google you wouldn't be using their platforms at all.

I used to pirate stuff all the time in my 20s and the heart of a pirate is feeling entitled to getting free stuff and not caring about the consequences. At some point I came to the conclusion if I don't contribute to the things I like they face extinction so I became a supporter.

I've never heard any paying customer call YTP a bad value.

You don't pay YTP because you care about creators, you pay because you want to avoid adds. If you cared about creators, you will drop them a bag

I refuse to pay Google because they already making money by me using their service, plus straling my stuffs.
Once again, Google already male a profit by me being a user, paying more to avoid add when I can do it for free is being a sucka and an enabler.

Why I use Google? Because I have no choice. It's basically a monopoly.

I hope one day those GAFAM will go thru what Standard Oil went thru.

there's alternatives out there.

email = yahoo, proton, outlook, etc
youtube = vimeo, dailymotion, etc
chrome = brave, edge, etc
search = bing, yahoo, kagi search, etc

seems like you just making excuses, and for whatever reason hung up on people "giving a multi billion company free money" - but you still giving other "multi billion companies free money" yourself if you subscribe to any given service (ISP/phone included), or make purchses...so it's funny you have a thing against YTP out of all things

I could take steps to get ads off YouTube without paying for YTP. I chose to pay for it and part of that is knowing it helps compensate creators I follow. It's the simplest way to do so. Don't have to sub to 100s of Patreons. It's why I pay for Crunchyroll when it's very easy to pirate anime.

I'm an adult with a job and I'm not broke. I can contribute to what I like.

And no you don't ever have to use YouTube or Google products. You aren't fighting some good fight here you're effectively stealing.

that only works on my laptop or ipad.

I want to consume media on my apple tv, and there's no simple free solution to blocks ads on that platform.
Ya I use the YouTube app a lot on my LG and I can’t
figure out an easy solution. I could just make a media comp for my living room but it’s not worth it rn for me
