You're a content creator, aren't you? ๐Ÿคฃ

No i am not. But I am happy to support actual content creators and the platform that they host on and gets them the most views because I spend more time on YT than I do on any other streaming platform.

It's too bad youtube doesn't do that, lol.

I mean that is objectively not true.

They pay content creators more than any other platform to my understanding. I think the exception is kik (kick?) The streaming platform.

Too bad you constantly have to be worried about dumb policy changes that can affect your older videos which can mean cutting off those revenue sources

Also Iโ€™ve never seen another platform that demonetizes content as much as YouTube does.

[โ€“] Shrek@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Both very fair points. But, there is no other platform that even compares for real.
