alt Hacker NewsDoes anyone have a good study as to how much advertising is too much advertising? There are some content creators on YouTube I enjoy watching but it's an ad every five minutes and it just ruins it all. For some, I've reached the point where I don't bother watching anymore because the ads are just too much. I sympathize with creators wishing to make money, but ... it's just becoming relentless. I'd love to see a study or even better YouTube internal analysis of how much viewers are willing to take before they just say enough.
>0 is too much, in my view.
Ads are a toxic weight on everyone who views them.
I use ad-blocking as much as possible, along with things like SponsorBlock to skip such content within the video itself.
