project and investments, does not a stable alternative make :(
let me clarify, stuff like youtube is hard to replace, because they aren't profitable, so theres no incentive for big money funding
i'm sure technically it's on the rise, but it can be argued about how significantly
cuz with a losing business model, you either have to have very dedicated/ambitious people to get the ball rolling
or make it open-source, and open source in my experience rarely creates a good final product
what makes u think that utube isnt profitable
scalability
maintenance costs are gonna be a drain compared to what you can get out of it for free
especially if you're not gonna use peoples data like google does
cuz thats their biggest profit margin in youtube,
Your user data, search information
and profit is a big word in that case, cuz youtube bleeds money
and i'm not slagging off the potential, all i'm saying is that its effectively mountain-climbing
if they are bleeding, is it a self solving problem then?
depends what you mean with the problem
youtubes dominance and thereby their ability to censor
worst case scenario, google decides youtube is no longer worth it, and stop it entirely, forcing people to flood to alt-tech 😄
but it is a false estimate, youtube itself costs more money than they get out of it
but since its a branch of the google tree, google ultimately GAINS money from youtube cuz they can use that data for their other branches
like how soy and apple are both branches of the faggot-tree 😏 👉 👉
I think youtube is perfectly capable to break even with maintenance and development costs and make a profit on top of that. i don't think it's a big profit, certainly not as big as they want. the major problem is that they dont know how to bring this sweet super bowl ad money and how to compete with game of thrones and shit
arent there like public figures we can look at?
they dont disclose utube figures
if he streams it, is it a timcast cast cast?
afaik google at one point said youtube is bleeding like 4 billion per year or something
or million
if tim has a couch, it's gross
what if Tim actually shattered his skull
and his beanie is his... Tim CAST
For his biopic movie, there will be a timcast cast too
bu dum tss
hmm
if timcast was a spell, you could cast him
i'll stop there
I
In India, the journalist class of citizens is called the Tim Caste
