When you block ads on YouTube, the ads are deleted. This has the problem of not giving creators money, forcing you to actually spend $10/mo or whatever the average Patreon subscription is. What if there was an option for an ad to play in the background while a black rectangle covers the screen while temporarily muting the browser tab? (Since the ad still plays in the background, the creator still gets money, allowing you to be a freeloader) edit: peertube has no ads

I make 30 minute videos with ads at 10 and 20 and refuse to do more than that because ewwww. The automatic ad populator puts like 10 ads in the same amount of time. It’s insane.
