YouTube Delays Livestream Ads During Peak Chat

YouTube isn’t removing ads. It’s changing live stream ad timing so ads don’t interrupt the biggest moments.

The company said it will hold back ads when live chat is busiest. It will also give a short ad-free window after someone buys a Super Chat, Super Sticker, or gift.

Ads are still staying on YouTube live streams.

Creators can still use automatic and manual mid-roll ads. So this is a timing change, not YouTube backing away from ads.
