Sponsors are usually just the same 5 things repeated over and over across many different videos. It's interesting to see how people manage to fit it in the various different styles of videos, but it gets annoying really quickly if you watch more than a few videos with the same sponsors. I block sponsors to save precious time, which is especially important when I am trying to understand something. In the end, sponsors are no different from ads, they are just messages from corporations to get you to buy things you most likely don't need.


Oh absolutely this… I’m completely sick of hearing about Raid Shadow Legends, NordVPN, and I’ll be completely sick of the next companies that spam sponsorship money around this much in the future.

I already have a VPN and I’m not going to switch now I know they’ve managed to rebuff the cops once ( Go Mullvad ) and I’m no at all interested in any of the heavily promoted VPN companies that sponsor so so much YouTube content.
