No

But as youtubers pulled in shit tons of viewers and shit, advertisers realised there's a market for it

youtube was just intended for shitposting

It was never designed to, no. Google made it possible by running ads, but other than that, it was designed as a place to post home videos.

Back in my day youtube was for fun and not for money

Floatplane was designed to I think, but I have to actually check it out

Ah okay

@Locus as it should be

Youtube's on it's last legs anyway

Good ol' Google with its business needs

It may be in America

Here in India though it is a big thing

I give it 3 more policy updates before the riots begin

yeah but america is like 75% of youtube

Oh yeah like that ofc

Oh you're in india?

Yess

Google should just cut its losses with YouTube

Are you a super power yet? <:Smug:585916700805824550>

I wish

All I am is a runaway in progress

I wanna be kali someday though

These memes better be the norm all year round i swear

Lmaooo I love it

Send more in the memes chat

If i can find em#

they were everywhere yesterday

If Google just removed monetization entirely and relinquished everything but the most basic of TOS conditions, everything would be fine. Maybe search algorithms could stay, but other than that, there are too many holes in the ship to fix all of them and keep YouTube afloat

Okayy

Yess I know

Monetisation by YouTube directly is scaring creators from it

Patreon is already a good paying platform

sent all the ones i could find

I'll post more as i come across em

Got it

At least we got something good out of that failure

Mfw trying to make a new facebook gaming page but can't think of a name#
