I can testify on that.
In the last two years, I’ve discovered VTubers and streamers in general.
I’ve discovered Geega’s tech talks, Deme’s videogame playthroughs, Michi Mochievee’s amazing (and shocking) IRL lore, VShojo group gaming sessions, Dokibird’s third wheel viral video, Ironmouse’s gremlin moments with Connor, Melody getting raided at the most inopportune times, Henya’s Minecraft trolling exploits, Veedal and Camila’s hopecore video, Neuro-sama’s singing and otherwise general roasting comments on human VTubers, and wholesome gaming streamers like Beacon of Nick.
Not to mention a number of woodworking youtubers teaching about, or otherwise making mistakes when building or restoring furniture.
There’s content for everyone, and traditional TV doesn’t even come close.
It’s like stepping out of a boring office into Alice’s Wonderland.
The creativity is out there and it’s a joy to see what can be without corporate meddling.
