      You’re never going to get an honest answer to this question,

      The honest answer was in the post they were originally replying to.

      I will never tolerate ads. I will give up YouTube before I watch ads.

      Youtube isn’t an existential need.

      Ad’s or bust isn’t a real dichotomy.

      Here’s another honest suggestion, drop free ad supported Youtube as a product and go full premium.

      It’d significantly reduce infrastructure costs and they’d be able to fund it with subscription monies.
