what other ways would help them?

Word of mouth, when possible.

It depends on the goal of the people, I follow some that mention what helps them.

it seems to me like what is probably more helpful is getting paid. With my YT premium sub all of the creators get paid some amount for my watch time (better than ad payment) and I don't see ads. It simply seems like the best solution
