What's the Lemmy equivalent of /r/hailcorporate?
That's funny, but I love content created by individuals and small teams, especially the maker/engineering channels. I'll take that over corporate produced media any day, even if it means paying a corporation to serve that content to me.
They also have one of the best business models for creators, meaning people producing content can do it full time and make a good living off of it, instead of doing it as a charity and producing mediocre quality videos.
If that's true I'd hate to see the worst models. It's a great system until Youtube completely changes their recommendation/discovery algorithm and kills your channel, or demonetizes half of it because there's a content rule change, or you get a couple content or copyright strikes filed by a troll and your whole channel and years of your life is suddenly shut down because you can't get a human to verify anything without a lawyer. If you're Mr. Beast or Pewdiepie, Youtube is good for you. If you're a normal creator, it's an absolute nightmare of constant fear about what dystopian changes will be forced on you overnight.
