the subs and bells are shit

2018-05-24 15:06:44 UTC  

the solution I'm doing is removing less relevant youtubers

2018-05-24 15:06:47 UTC  

@.B aggregator site?

2018-05-24 15:06:53 UTC  

because the ones I most watch are disappearing from my feed

2018-05-24 15:06:59 UTC  

Doing so would seem counterproductive to the long term well being of YT but they wouldn't be the first company to shoot themselves in the foot

2018-05-24 15:07:32 UTC  

honestly i havent had any problem with my subbox

2018-05-24 15:08:01 UTC  

i can't help but feel youtube is trying to tackle political problems and then getting everyone caught in their crossfire, leading to more problems.

2018-05-24 15:08:05 UTC  

i know some people talk about being unsubbed or not seeing videos in their sub (which i sometimes have seen with metokur videos)

2018-05-24 15:08:05 UTC  

@Grenade123 imagine I do I site where you can subscribe creators, and I show you your sub box. But when you watch the video it's on youtube, the site works just as an aggregator

2018-05-24 15:08:15 UTC  

but most of the time im not having any problems

2018-05-24 15:08:36 UTC  

@.B how does the aggregator site make money to keep itself online

2018-05-24 15:08:55 UTC  

content creators have to pay to use it

2018-05-24 15:09:06 UTC  

ads, an aggregator site is cheap to keep up anyway

2018-05-24 15:09:14 UTC  

or that

2018-05-24 15:09:41 UTC  

I'm going to Japan in 1 week. When I settle I might work on that

2018-05-24 15:09:59 UTC  

though i dont think it would be all that unatractive for content creators to pay a small amount to use it

2018-05-24 15:10:04 UTC  

Matt Drudge/Drudge Report is probably one of the "biggest" aggregators that I am aware of

2018-05-24 15:10:06 UTC  

though I'm getting a lot of offers related to Blockchain 🤔

2018-05-24 15:10:37 UTC  

maybe work on a two fold approach. make an aggregator site for viewing, and one for uploading. Maybe charge for the uploader, run adds on the aggregator

2018-05-24 15:10:44 UTC  

@Arch-Fiend you can't promote an aggregator initially if you asks for people to pay it

2018-05-24 15:10:52 UTC  

do ads work on embedded views from youtube?

2018-05-24 15:11:03 UTC  

alright

2018-05-24 15:11:09 UTC  

it also reduces the value of YT's subscription, as the aggregator subs rise in relevance

2018-05-24 15:11:38 UTC  

if you make it one button click to upload a video to say youtube and bitchute at the same time, and the tool handles filling out descriptions and title boxes, all that jazz

2018-05-24 15:11:41 UTC  

I wouldn't do it embedded

2018-05-24 15:12:09 UTC  

the idea is simply to fix the subscription problem and visibility of what people want to see

2018-05-24 15:12:25 UTC  

so i need to visit one site, just to then go visit another site?

2018-05-24 15:13:01 UTC  

that's what an aggregator is, pretty much

2018-05-24 15:13:20 UTC  

why not skip the middle man? i mean, part of the problem is that subs don't know they have missed a video, and so long as you can still go to a person page and look at the last upload (which may soon not work on youtube), why would i go to this other site?

2018-05-24 15:13:22 UTC  

Science has proven it

2018-05-24 15:13:27 UTC  

remember, people are lazy

2018-05-24 15:13:35 UTC  

too many clicks and people get annoyed

2018-05-24 15:13:45 UTC  

UI design 101

2018-05-24 15:13:55 UTC  

@Grenade123 if you have 50 subs, do you go to their channels one by one?

2018-05-24 15:14:06 UTC  

I don't

2018-05-24 15:14:25 UTC  

see the only problem i have with an aggregator is do people even know what they are anymore? like the idea is to fight the hidding of content on youtube by youtube, and youtube isint just where videos are uploaded but its also the biggest aggregator for videos in the world besides like the video section on google when you search. so how does an aggragator actually increase growth? advertising the aggragator?

2018-05-24 15:15:01 UTC  

the idea was just to fix the visibility issue

2018-05-24 15:15:11 UTC  

not the ad revenue

2018-05-24 15:15:24 UTC  

yeah i just asked about the visibility issue

2018-05-24 15:15:54 UTC  

depending on the volume of people in the aggregator, it can start paying creators for viewers that come from there

2018-05-24 15:16:22 UTC  

the main way aggragators work is sub sharing
