I use a userscript that will like a video (even if not subscribed) if I watch at least 80% of it. As for commenting, it really depends on the topic. Like, if someone needs help on a tutorial, yes. General videos like PewDiePie, no.
As for subscribing, a channel’s content must be interesting and not feel corporate. It always feels good when you find a new youtuber you like!

And when enough people like that fresh new Youtuber with fresh new content, before you know it, that Youtuber starts shilling NordVPN, Incogni or some electric shaver. Just like all the others…
I understand why they do it. I even sympathize. But I don’t have to like it.
I’m properly sick and tired of hearing about NordVPN and a handful of other brands that have decided to pollute the whole of Youtube with their shitty ads.
The other thing that disgusts me is when said Youtubers shill NordVPN as if they actually tried it themselves and recommend the service personally. They haven’t: they’ve been paid by NordVPN to spew out their bullshit convincingly on their behalf.
So why I understand why Youtubers sell out, they’re still sellouts, and just hearing them shill NordVPN brings a slight taste of vomit to my mouth.

Yes, because broke YouTubers are the only ones worth our time /s
