Youtube Ads
Added 2021-05-20 19:46:19 +0000 UTCI have received this notification from YouTube. The Patron early release videos are not monetized, but I can no longer guarantee they will be ad-free.
If they do start putting ads on these videos, let me know, and I may consider posting them to a different site like Vimeo or something.

Correct response. Plan for the possibility but do not be rushed into a decision you do not have to make. They may just be trying to flush out potential customers.

2021-05-24 00:57:06 +0000 UTCI don't know if they are going to stick ads on or not, guess we'll see. If they throw ads on the vids, I guess I'll decide what to do then.

2021-05-21 00:45:26 +0000 UTCIf they are gonna stick ads on, then does it make sense to just monetize the videos yourself? I also pay for premium so this hasn't ever been the draw of being a patreon supporter. Early access + the discord server are what I am here for (and to support the channel, obviously)

2021-05-20 23:19:52 +0000 UTCNot to plug a greedy company or anything, but paying for YouTube Premium has actually really been worth it. Can download vids, watch ‘em with the screen off, and announcements like these make no difference to me. Also don’t have to feel guilty about cheating channels out of ad revenue, as they get more than the fractions of pennies they would have gotten from you watching the ads. So if you’re already a patron, might be worth doing!

2021-05-20 20:35:09 +0000 UTCI pay for premium, so I won't see the adds either way, but I'll let you know if anything seems odd. Keep being awesome my man!

2021-05-20 20:16:02 +0000 UTCI'm not certain whether they are going to add in ads or not. If you start seeing ads on these vids, maybe let me know. I have some other options, like using another platform for Patreon videos (like Vimeo), but I figure let's wait and see what happens.

2021-05-20 20:14:09 +0000 UTCCrazy. So I pay for premium and get no add on YouTube but if I watch the video from Patreon I might see adds. Hey man you are a class act regardless of what YouTube does. Be well.

2021-05-20 19:49:47 +0000 UTCHonestly if they're gonna add ads to them anyway, wouldn't bother me if you did monitize. You might as well get the cut YT is trying to take
