I'm one of the dozen people that bought premium to not have to deal with it. I'm just patiently waiting for alternatives to become more viable so I can jump ship entirely. YouTube is the last remaining Google service I still use.

From what I've read, YouTubers don't get paid from views that use an ad-blocker, but they still do from views that have premium, so my justification is that I'm helping support the creators I like. I'm also paying for Nebula, which some of the documentary-style creators upload to as well now.
