From my observations, it's essentially:
1. subsidize creators, giving cash & traffic boost
2. recommender generously favors new creators
This keeps the hype cycle growing and avoids the "power-user" problem. The Tiktok model is very punishing for "old" or full-time creators, you'll find a very tough up-hill battle to maintain the attractiveness. But overall it's good for consumers casual creators.

- SuoDuanDao 4y agothat's probably per view, that doesn't mean it's not easier to get new viewers which is where most people could use a subsidy if they want to get into the industry.
- xboxnolifes 4y agoBeena while since I came across the information, but I thought TikTok paid better than YouTube shorts, which is the direct comparison.
