You mean , attracts the content, because it's not their own. Youtube in the end is a service for submitting video, and other competitors may disrupt them if the p2p model works well in the future.
- digital_voodoo 7y agoI think OP was speaking of the userbase + what the users submit. It's the same problem when you want to switch to a "privacy-oriented" chat client. What's the point of being alone to chat, when most of your social network is elsewhere and doesn't want to move a toe?
- buboard 7y agowhile twitter & FB have a strong network effect, i am not friends with anyone on youtube, and even the subcriptions are not too many
- jolmg 7y agoI also don't have friends or many subscriptions on YouTube, but the videos I can find on it are amazing, and that's due to their network effect as well. It drives me to search for stuff on YouTube before other places.
