I'm not sure how people don't see these things as anti-ads. I wouldn't touch any of these companies with a 20 meter cattle prod.
I'm happy that creators get paid, sure, but if a company has to go out of their way to get someone to make ads for them, it doesn't inspire trust at all.
World of Tanks is missing here
War Thunder. Better Help. Vesi.
This website analysed around 1 million videos, and found 13,232 brands. The one channel I watch, ended their sponsor with Huel, since it had lead in their drinks.
use SponsorBlock
"this is a great segw⏩as you can see here..." Thank you SponsorBlock and SmartTube developers 😘
Huh, I think I see pcbway/jlcpcb and various 3D printer/laser cutter companies 90% of the time I'm watching a channel with sponsors.
When I get those it's pretty well fitting into the video though. The YouTuber will already be putting together a 3d printing or pcb project and the sponsorship seems to improve their overall product (more than doing it in house)
That says something about you.... and me.
This feels like an ad.
Then support Nebula / Patreon and avoid sponsors via adblock.
Sooo: which of them should i activly avoid and which are okay?
Curiosity Stream is fine if you are looking for a service that let's you pay to stream nature docs. The rest, I'd probably avoid. Some of the because they suck, others because there are better alternatives.
Edit: Commented thrice due to app issues.
