This is really only if you make commentary style of videos. Which is a huge part of what YouTube is now but still not the only thing on there. There’s skits, there’s not a lot of it, but still people’s films, there’s just something interesting that happened and you had the presence of mind to film it, there’s animation, I think there’s a degree of citizen journalism on there too though I’ve ot really seen a lot of that. That would be maybe commentary adjacent but still slightly different than just a person and a topic.
That said you could do all of those solo, with varying degrees of difficulty.

Exactly. I’d much, much rather watch a dinosaur video from someone who really really wants to talk about dinosaurs, and found video as a medium to talk about it, rather than someone who wants to do video and is trying to come up with a topic for the videos he already wants to make.
Same with cooking, comedy, tech, business, current events, politics, etc. I’d rather watch/listen to someone who cares about those things specifically than someone who wants to “create content.”
