Enthusiasts who want to earn money off the platform, yes.
Ah yes, because humans never want to share information, or show others something they’ve achieved or created. The only possible motivation could be money.
That’s not what I’m saying, but these people choose to upload their content to YouTube specifically, so what’s your point?
That’s there’s not really another platform to upload to that you can easily share long form video content on, for free? I don’t understand your point now.
My point is that nothing is free. You can’t have it both ways.
What? My initial point was people wanted to share things like information or creativity and youtube is one of the only viable places to upload too. I literally don’t understand your points.
Yes but they can’t anyways because google never fixed their completely borked content ID system. Half the people I watch just assume that all of their videos will be demonitized anyways. They make all of their money off of patreon.
I’m no Google fan, but it’s borderline impossible to moderate a site of that size. It’s a legal nightmare that cannot be solved by just humans. Read some articles about the human moderators of sites like YouTube and Facebook. Those people see some shit.
But yes, YouTube should definitely improve their escalation system, and pay more attention to refuted strikes. It sucks to see innocent creators get punished by a broken system.
As a contributor who doesn’t monetize videos, you don’t speak for everyone.
