Our opinions and wish lists don’t matter. Content creators make money from being on YouTube. If you want to create an actual alternative, be ready to subsidize the income of a couple thousand content creators to the level that they can afford lambos. Then maybe you can create a competitor. Maybe. Because the step after that is to throw money at global infrastructure and still somehow make a profit.
- soheil 6y agoThe question wasn't so much what the content creators want as much as what the average viewers wants. I get that viewers are seeking creators' content, but going a step beyond that what are some of the things in the first place that if implemented would create a viable alternative to YouTube?
- lovehashbrowns 6y agoIs this a thought experiment or are you actually wanting to create an alternative to YouTube?
- jcims 6y agoSo basically TikTok stretches into YouTube.
