the knowledge that their money is going directly towards their favourite creator and not some random advertiser.

The advertisers aren’t getting money by showing you ads unless you buy something, unless you mean YouTube which I think still takes a cut. Also I’ve been getting ‘recommendations’ for videos like those from channels I haven’t even subscribed to so it’s almost certainly not my favourite creator they’re trying to get me to throw money at.

The YouTube main page is already usually about 16-20% ads (although every now and then it’s less) I don’t like having even fewer serious recommendations.
