well sargon wasnt that big
aye, how long you think it'll take for youtube to go down the shitter
I was under the impression he was one of the biggest patreon earners?
they did lose 4 or 5 of their top 10 because of it though
Huh
he wasn't close to JBP
or harris
Because they left in protest, or because they kicked them?
@sheepzealand youtube won't go anywhere
harris self yeeted shortly after the sargon ban in protest
Unless someone makes a better video platform, it'll be around.
people have tried it isnt easy
youtube is a google cashcow, you're not gonna one up google
I see
ya know its good that this patreon thing happened cause now people gotta be carefull about who they lay in bed with
It's actually not
JBP and dave rubin a week or two ago in protest
They apparently barely make money on it
could always charge like 20%, then just let people stay up regardless
then some random engineering channel that was like 3rd highest also self yeeted in protest
Huh, interesting
youtube has never turned a profit afaik
charge enough, and you can afford to ignore virtue signaling shit
@Tewdrig but if it keeps going like this, eventually all the actually good shit will be gone. so they'll still exist, but it'll be just lame normie shite
it either has a slight profit, or pays for itself
its not *as bad* as they let on
Yeon are you telling me you *don't* pay for youtube red and their *premium* youtube content
I wonder who the engineering guys were
plus they dont have to post income
its not public
Oh, it's definitely not that bad
they make enough to keep it around
But it's not like it's their biggest money spinner
otherwise theyd just yeet it
youtube died when they sold out to google
Even if it was a slight loss they'd keep it because it's a household name
youtube has actually contributed quite a lot to rapid data storage solutions
youtube is a fucking ghost of its former self running on the dregs of talent that has long since fled
its pretty impressive
and general server architecture
