To me (non-youtuber), this feels like the common case of a developer trying to (over)optimize the process/increasing the "efficiency" of some business in a way that doesn't actually tackle any of the hard problems. I imagine that for a youtuber who has hired an editor, the hard problems to solve are: 1. getting more subscribers 2. thinking of things to make videos about 3. shooting videos, including with good lighting and sound

"Hello, from the perspective of a channel owner with some experience, I do agree that your problem is real and common among YouTubers who outsource their editing. Your proposed solution does seem viable and efficient: it cuts down unnecessary steps, saves on bandwidth, and still ensures control over the video approval process. It's straightforward and practical — like a streamlined content management system specifically tailored for YouTube content creators. A potential challenge might be ensuring seamless video quality during the approval and upload processes. Nevertheless, with the right platform and technology, this could be an innovative solution for many YouTubers out there."

  Note that I didn't say it's not a "real" problem - perhaps it saves a few hours / week and increases "efficiency". The point was that it doesn't solve any of the _hard_ problems of making good videos / getting a big audience.

    Yeah, because it is. I just looked at the comment history for that account and the guy who runs it even has a video called "ULTIMATE Guide to AUTOMATING Reddit Comment Responses for FREE Traffic"
