I was watching はじめしゃちょー on youtube, and I noticed that he keeps adding

> だけども / ですけども

at the end of sentences.

I fully understand the usage of けど, however I have never encountered も (or is
it もう?) attached to it.

Thank you!

Meaning of だけども / ですけども
けど is the short form of けれども, which could be written け(れ)ど(も), because all of
けれども, けれど, けども, けど are used.

けども is what, in my experience, is often used in a half formal, half informal
setting. It is more refined than けど, but not quite as stiff as けれども.

answer
けれども is a contradictory conjugation expressing something along the lines of
"but" or "however." The ど/ども part in this expression is the part that
expresses the contradiction. By a means of shortening one's speech (through
laziness, etc.) the different forms came into usage.

The shortening is analogous to contractions in English (cannot -> can't). As
such, this changes the formality/politeness of the expression.

The politeness of けれども gradually degrades in the following order:

けれども → けれど → けども → けど

[Most polite] → [Least polite]
