You make a very valid point and I actually agree with that. Kind of damned if we do and damned if we don’t, I guess. I’ve had this Convo before for someone who argued I’m only hurting the YouTubers I watch because they receiving my revenue, but I argued if we simply gave money directly to the creators they might do even better. Even if only a small percentage actually paid through Patreon or whatever, but your point remains. Where would they host their content of YouTube went away? I suppose there’s no easy solution to this problem and it is awesome to have all that info/entertainment in one centralized place. We need a billionaire who actually wants to do good to step up and just be like, “here world, here’s a free server farm for whatever you need it for” but that’s a pipe dream at best.
