Agreed, we need more creators uploading their content both to YT as well as to other hosting sites that are less explicitly against the viewership. Google only cares about maximizing their profits, and it’s sad to have witnessed how YT has degraded over the years. It used to be a place that cared so much about the user experience and now… It’s an ad serving tool, and not much more.
Once enough big creators decide to support alternative platforms we may see a growing number of people who check out of YT for good.
The creators are making money from the ads, they probably won’t abandon ship at yt unless they stop making revenue. A lot of the creators on yt rely on the ads to be worthwhile in creating the content.
I agree, yt is getting stupid with their ads, from what I understand they are now including ads in the yt premium subscription aervice, which is supposed to be ad free mind you.
As long as greed dictates content, creators won’t abandon ship, unless they can have ads on the alternatives to make money on.
