Everyone is SO FOCUSED on like Mr beast or some other big youtuber.
It’s the medium sized people who are the problem. Mr beast has product endorsements and a show on Amazon. He could live comfortably without youtube. But people like davie504, Cody’s lab, tasting history, all those mid sized channels who do this for a living and are the whole reason I go to YouTube in the first place simply can’t afford to migrate somewhere they won’t get paid.
I wouldn’t expect people to destroy their livelihood for this. We can have both. Also YouTube started with no money. Lots of people want to share their hobbies. And more and more are turning away from big tech. This one happen over night. But how does the flood start? One drop at a time.
It doesn’t HAVE to be everyone. There are tons of under served communities.
We will never go toe to toe with Google. Someday a company might be able to with federated servers.
More likely interoperability laws could force Youtube to open.
But so many folks don’t need or want to go get big.
Education, religions, private businesses.
