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

For sure. YouTube creators shilling for honey while Honey stole their affiliation money shows how little time they spend vetting their sponsors. The stuff they peddle is usually a few ticks away from scam, pretty much always overpriced. The day sponsorblock stops working, is the day I stop paying for YouTube premium and using youtube. It's a pity, because there is a lot of good content on there.

It's not about making money, it's about making all the money.
It's probably also about sending a message. -
PipePipe worked for me when stock NewPipe didn't. YMMV

Companies wouldn't buy the ads if they didn't work.

It’s the size really. As with most social media platforms, often they are fairly easy to create (YouTube definitely isn’t, but many could). Problem is that it’s impossible to compete with, because people expect the activity you get from hundreds of millions of users.
Same goes for Twitter, Reddit and whatnot. Since capitalism took over the internet completely, basically none of the large plattforms have been outcompeted really.
To big to fail isn’t the banks nowadays, well then to, but it’s IT as well.

Well over 50% of the sites on the internet are English so it is the most prominent language on the net.

Teacher here. My school uses everything Chrome OS and locks the ability to install extensions or other browsers. It's not always us.

Shit tons of people are paying for it. And the ones that aren’t, are viewing ads- both of these things are a profit for YouTube.
The only option you have is to not use the services at all. This is how you hurt them.
