    I miss unmonetized youtube in general. Too many channels make it big and end up committing to youtube as a profession which leads to burn out or a significant drop in video quality.

    Youtube’s (and Facebook) revenue system incentivizes content that gets lots of views in a very short period of time, and way too many people get hooked after seeing the cash flow from a handful of good uploads.

    And the revenue provided is a minimized running cost for Google, YouTube takes home a fat 11 billion dollars a year in profit.

    Same. Jojis music is cool but its just not a replacement for papa franku. Most people are only on youtube for the money these days and this type of content always gets demonetized.

    I do too, not really because it was amazing content but it was always a surprise. A guaranteed “What in the fu?”
