Floatplane, CuriosityStream or Nebula or whaever, lots of channels have the same videos on their Patreon. why don't you use those?
oh right because they are paid services and you don't want that
As much as I disagree with idea people are entitled to use youtube without compensation, you're strawmanning them. This isn't productive.
I actually do use some of those. Having said that, it's not jus the consumers who have to use the alternatives, but also the creators. Like I said people are on YouTube for the content creators, not for YouTube itself. And the consumerbase on those alternatives is just too small to make them a VIABLE alternative. Hence why you see so many creators on nebula also on YouTube.
