this is probably exactly why x started doing video. youtube is so full of fake channels that it readily presents fake ones at the top of search results.
the x stream has been great and had a far greater reach (2.5 million) than any of the youtube streams by a factor of 10x or so.

Every major account, without exception, has multiple fake clones (often many created per day) running around trying to steal clicks and occasionally phish users. The Internet is just hard. You're just saying that the Twitter official account is official. No reason you can't have an Official Account anywhere else, SpaceX just doesn't.
- elif 3y agowhen you search spacex on x, you are presented the official account first. when i searched spacex on multiple youtube apps this morning, i couldn't even find the official spacex account after going through pages of menus.
- ajross 3y agoAgain, because there is no official SpaceX feed on YouTube, they deleted it. Can you link to the channel you think you should be seeing? To be clear: if you search for "SpaceX" on Google, you get the corporate website as the first link and the Twitter account as the second. But YouTube has nothing to show you, by SpaceX's choice.

- elif 3y agoyou are searching channels. that is not available on, the roku app, for instance. if you search by channels on x, for fair comparison, there are no spoofed spacex accounts to be seen anywhere. https://twitter.com/search?q=spacex&src=recent_search_click&f=user https://twitter.com/search?q=spacex&src=recent_search_click&...
