Comment on Goodbye Youtube and thanks for all the fish

I consider letting ads play or paying for a subscription ‘paying for YouTube’. So I’m curious as to why you wouldn’t?

We obviously both agree that creators should be paid

I think we can agree that YouTube should be paid something. They host the content, the replication, the back ups, and they provide a single location for viewers to aggregate which helps all creators find new viewers. That is expensive to do and is valuable for creators
Is it the amount of ads they play, the amount they charge for premium, the revenue split doesn’t give enough to creators, or something else?

It’s nothing so complicated. I just don’t want to. I feel like they earn enough money from collecting (and selling) my data. If they don’t, then they wouldn’t keep doing this.

Fair enough
