Hey everyone!


Here is episode 11 of the 2nd Season of your patroncast! 


In this one, I talk about:

01:07 The issue with Youtube Vanced, third party Youtube clients, adblock, and is that piracy, and it's complicated

14:42 The Steam Deck Verified program, and how it's really imperfect and might end up being kinda detrimental to the whole SteamOS / Steam Deck thing

22:15 Personal stuff, like trying to replace my smartwatch, and trying to be more consistent with Youtube Shorts

Don't hesitate to sound off in the comments!

Best,

Nick

Good to hear your thoughts on advertising as a content creator since I am someone who blocks a lot of ads, but still want to support the content I consume. I did a quick assessment and found I watched 30 videos from your channel over the last 6 months and listen to your podcast every week. I'm wondering if you have a number in mind for what you believe someone who consumes this amount of what you produce should pay. This is the question I ask myself whenever I decide to support a creator, which seems fair to me, but I want to know what someone on the other end thinks.

Oh that's not for me to decide, you're the best judge of what you're willing to pay :) Ad I said, if you're here, you're already contributing more than what youtube Ad Revenue would bring :)

Ads... *sigh*. I honestly do not mind any contextual advertisement or sponsored mentions. As long as they somehow fit the content I'm watching. If I'm looking for privacy videos, I do not mind a VPN or private search engine ad. It is in the same context, it makes sense. I'm actually glad you have Slimbook as a sponser. Should I ever need a new laptop again, I will seriously consider them. What I hate is the supposed personalised ads, tracking and profiling. What I hate more is that even if you allow advertisement on a page, but do block tracking you are treated the same with adblocker warnings. I guess for advertisment companies such as Google, being able to track and profile might be even more important than actually showing the ads.

yeah, I always try to pick the sponsors on their merits, and on the usefulness for the audience: I don't want to start promoting Raid Shadow legends (they've asked multiple times), or something to manscape, I want the sponsors to be something I can use, I use, or that I can recommend. Anything else, I'll pass on. It might mean leaving money on the table, but in the end, I think it makes things better for people who watch my stuff!
