Man that sounded like a lots of work for watching YouTube.
I watch YouTube usually because I have something else to do, and I needed something to make a sound + be my timer. If an ad starts to play, it will not effect my main task. 5 or 10 seconds later the Skip button displays, I click/tap on it and continue my task, and the ad will be forgotten almost instantly.
I don't think those ad makers knows how ads actually work: you only have certain amount of seconds to convert a client. After that, the ad will be forgotten. People who interested in your product will sign on after few encounters with the ad. And for those who didn't sign on, they don't care and pushing more ads will simply annoy them and makes them hate your product.
For example, those 5 seconds TikTok ads are low quality and extremely annoying (, making me believe that ByteDance is using the strategy to downgrade the user experience of YouTube. Very clever indeed), I'll never sign on no matter how many times it plays.
For me personally, I like to take my time to read the detail about a product, those video ads just can't cut it. The text + picture based ads displayed by Reddit catches me better.
