    Personally, I’d rather pay for Nebula than YouTube premium. Most of the creators I actively follow are on there anyways, and the few that aren’t (usually the ones with very long videos) I should probably just watch with ads anyways to support them.

      I had a similar thought. How fair is nebula to their creators? I heard it was somehow creator owned, but other than that I have no idea how it works.

        My understanding is it’s a joint venture between the creators and some LLC (don’t know too much of the details of that), so the creators have at least some ownership stake. The profits from subscriptions get split evenly based on watch time.

        I remember them doing a lifetime subscription offer that I was intrigued by, but I can afford to support them through a subscription so I didn’t bite on the chance.
