My opinion on this is that they’re already getting money from ads

Are they? With so many people, especially here on Lemmy, willing to go hard to adblock plus a steadfast refusal to pay for YT Premium I'd guess that most smaller YT Content Creators are getting very little ad revenue. Without Merch sales and Patreon how are they supposed to get any money to support themselves?

I understand your point about being a walking billboard and I feel the same way but these days it just feels like no one wants to contribute in any way to help support small time creators.

That's why I go out of my way to support the Lil guys when possible. Wish more had better merch vs logo on generic t.

Milo isn't exactly a "small" channel. Hell he averages almost a million views within 24 hours of dropping a new video these days, but Miniminuteman has some really good merch. I want his latest knee jerk Pangea hoodie, and I got myself a Sahara swimmers cave ring.
