You realize YT isn't special, right? They are piggybacking on user content more than users are on their infra.
- anon-3988 3y agoI think being able to host petabytes upon petabytes of videos and serving them at a pretty good speed is pretty special. > They are piggybacking on user content more than users are on their infra. Are you sure? How many people host their own content now? People that do that will soon become irrelevant because for half of humanity YT is THE video hosting site with the rest being Huabao, niconico or something. So in that regard it is special.
