Which did you use?
I also think it is a tool being used to help push out whatever content the person using it wants.
It may be seen in the history books as akin to the Industrial Revolution.
The Industrial Revolution, sometimes divided into the First Industrial Revolution and Second Industrial Revolution, was a period of global transition of the human economy towards more widespread, efficient and stable manufacturing processes that succeeded the Agricultural Revolution. Beginning in Great Britain, the Industrial Revolution spread to continental Europe and the United States, from around 1760 to about 1820–1840. This transition included going from hand production methods to machines; new chemical manufacturing and iron production processes; the increasing use of water power and steam power; the development of machine tools; and the rise of the mechanised factory system. Output greatly increased, and the result was an unprecedented rise in population and the rate of population growth. The textile industry was the first to use modern production methods, and textiles became the dominant industry in terms of employment, value of output, and capital invested.

It is just another tool being used to create the content you desire.
Improvements are needed, but I have seen really well-done ones where a general introductory topic is discussed.

TIL, people follow that rule.
I try to keep my communities active, not sure you can say that about the others though.

do we really a whole community for that?
Why not.
It is just another new community like many on lemmy.
What do you want to talk about it there?
People can talk about SponsorBlock and the like.

I use other YT forks and systems that already implement similar techniques even if they are “good” or “bad” ads.
I am also for Sailing the High Seas.
We have a difference in opinion on this matter, but thanks for the small chat and the link!
This is the section you are talking about:
SponsorBlock
This year, a developer worked on implementing support for SponsorBlock in NewPipe. SponsorBlock is a crowd-sourced database listing sponsored sections in videos, which are automatically skipped by clients such as web browsers, using extensions.
While SponsorBlock’s implementation apparently takes care to preserve user privacy (you can, e.g., download the entire database for offline use, and its regular querying system is also well made), it targets an ethical advertising system. Its purpose is to help users, who probably don’t realise that sponsorship is one of the most ethical ways to fund their favorite content, automatically skip sponsored sections of videos.
Morally, it’s a very questionable system. Of course, some sponsoring may be of little relevance to the user, or maybe even intrusive or hidden. But SponsorBlock doesn’t differentiate between ethical and unethical advertisements. It just skips all kinds of sponsored sections.

Okay.
Not all ads are invasive soul seeking tracking nightmares
Ads are ads; it doesn’t matter if they are “good” or “bad,” unless you want to watch them like most people do because they don’t mind or they don’t know how to block them.
no, there are not “many ways” for content creators to do that full-time.
If they do not get the engagement or funds they need, they will either paywall or find other ways to support themselves; or they will just not make it on YouTube or streaming, like many people before them, unless they continue to fight on while learning and failling.
This reminds me of some small business talks; it is a harsh capitalistic world; you give up or keep trying.
I still say grassroots funding and support is the way to go if they are just doing it for the hobby or for what they believe.

People will support them if they can and if they want to.
Many ways to support them, direct funding, talking about them, making communities, and other stuff.
