I’m actually looking to start a YouTube channel, but I don’t know if I should even bother since YouTube seems to be going out of its way to try to kill itself

I guess there’s no reason not to post to other sites as well?

Since you’re already in the Fediverse, I’d suggest looking into PeerTube for your videos rather than going to YouTube as your primary platform.
I currently have a channel, but am going to switch to PeerTube when I have my backlog built up again so I can post in a steady schedule. (Workin’ on it…) The only things I’m going to put on YouTube are videos going, ‘Hey! I have the video up here! Follow the link!’ so that people can actually find it and Words of the Week shorts 'cuz I don’t want to feed their AI bullshit that I can’t get away from with proper stuff and it’s just stick figures and rudimentary drawings with words from the dictionary. Unfortunately, it’s not as user friendly to search for stuff on PeerTube as it is on YouTube. I’m hoping that gets fixed sooner rather than later. It’ll make things better. sigh

Upload it to multiple platforms. If one dies you have already a plan B.

Do other services! Like Peertube and then mirror videos on youtube and odyssey so you still get traction
