Those YouTube ads everyone hates made $10.4 billion in just three months

I think they can pretty much post whatever they want but I've never used it myself as it's all pay walled. But yeah I think reactors are all jumping over to it as it gets harder to post anything on YouTube without someone else trying to claim the ad money.

Competition. It's all about competition between companies. In highly saturated markets ads serve to build brand recognition and are seen as long term investment to gain market share. Good example is TikTok. The social media market is very much saturated and competition very high, so TikTok's strategy was to buy every ad they could to create brand recognition, which in turn helped gaining market share.
So I don't think the ad business is a bubble at all, it's just that the usefulness and function depends on the market a company competes within.

I find using it in a browser clunky. Much prefer a dedicated app (now I use Tubular), which gives some extra functions like downloads, history and playlists.

Can confirm. As soon as I turn off personalized ads, I get nothing but "find hot ladies in your area" and "play this hentai game" ads across all Google products. It's ridiculous.

Do you think a GrayJay will stand o a NewPipe for this?

Patreon has it's own internal hosting, yes. But is it still leaning on Azure/AWS? shrug Probably.

And that's probably what will kill them as payouts get worse and worse making other platforms more attractive as you're not losing as much. A lot of YouTubers I follow seem to becoming more and more reliant on Patreon as ad revenue goes down.
