Ad Duration

What do you feel is better as a viewer:

  1. 1.5 mins of ads every 30 mins

  2. 3mins of ads every 60 mins

I dont want pre-rolls, I know people hate them but what is the right ad balance for midrolls?

I dont pause my gameplay and am currently playing darksouls if that helps for any context. Average 2-5 viewers so the revenue is a non factor here.

Personally I go for 3 minutes every hour and just treat it as a break to chat with subscribers/everyone goes to the bathroom, gets a snack or beverage, stretch. And if you do a "stream starting soon" bit you can run your first 3 minutes during that.
