I know there’s a significant part of the market that’d just say yeah, fuck it, i’ll pay for RedtubeYoutube Red Youtube Premium, but there’s also a significant part of it, where a lot of people would rather just stop watching stuff entirely.
It’s just like Hulu back in the days. You’d have no choice but to pay for a premium tier, just to have 14 unskippable ads forced down your throat, all in a span of a 19 minute long tv episode. I stopped paying after that month and resorted to piracy.
Piracy is always a service issue, except now it’s legitimately going to harm individual creators, who have just about everything to lose, rathen that a rotten husk of some corporation, that’s going to print free money, no matter what you do

I know it isn’t the world we live in anymore, and there’s nothing we can do about it…but maybe we shouldn’t have treated YouTube like a job and just kept it as a hobby video website between ordinary people. Like what it started out as.
To be honest, whether we want it or not, art is a necessary aspect of society. The issue here is that we put a lot of trust in a corporate environment, the entire goal of which is to pocket as much as possible, while riding the success of the people creating stuff
Yeah that’s what I mean. People created entire careers which are 100% dependent on the whims of a mega corporation. It never seemed like a stable source of income to me. I’ve always treated it like it’s just a silly video site, nothing more.

I’d 100% pay for it if the pricing made any sense.
The price is absolutely obscene. No fucking way i’m paying that
When it was 9 bucks, it was worth it. Certainly isn’t now.
Redtube is a porn site, lol.
