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

It's part of why they've been so bizarre with ads etc

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

how you can have so many watching at such high resolutions

without serious issue

Yeah. Technically it's an amazing achievement

someone please create an alternative to youtube that doesn't hate it's creators

their hdd blades are pretty impressive

google owns streets of buildings that are just thousands of servers

well youtube is gonna be around for another 20-30 years but its gonna slowly be a palce for trailers family freindly stuff and music

so shite

basically

yeah unless someone breaks the mold in some way

hopefully we'll still have liveleak for breaking news uncensored footage then

only thing i know liveleak is for , is for weird people who want to see someone get shot

We already have an alternative to YouTube; Pornhub
