Creators say that premium is a huge chunk of their YouTube revenue. I'm inclined to believe them over some random like you.

Either:

I watch ten creators. I divide $10 per month between them evenly. They each get $1 per month.

Or:

I pay for YouTube premium. It costs $10 per month. I watch ten creators. The $10 goes to YouTube.

I make the following assumptions:

* YouTube only takes a portion of that $10

* YouTube divides the remaining money evenly across the creators I watch (10)

Each creator gets less than $1 per month

Which gives the creators more revenue?

    No, they don’t. How are you magically sending them this money? They all signed up for that method? And it doesn’t charge a minimum transfer fee?

    You’re unserious.

      By the same method I'll be alternatively sending to YouTube.

      That's not the point and you know it.
