Anyone with children or people who are children themselves: Get an adblock.

Either it be uBlock on Firefox, either it be ABP, GET A DAMN ADBLOCK. Turn it off for the channels you want to support or just don't ever. Even if YouTube and Google attempt to cut back on it, its still worth it. Avoid watching YouTube on TV if possible. Just do anything besides buy premium. They lock features behind a paywall. If you're able to support the creators via some sort of patreon, floatplane, or the join button, then great. If not, buy their merchandise. (Unless it's lankybox, they can suck it in the greed layer.) Just do anything.
