Inside the ‘arms race’ between YouTube and ad blockers / Against all odds, open source hackers keep outfoxing one of the wealthiest companies.::YouTube’s dramatic content gatekeeping decisions of late have a long history behind them, and there’s an equally long history of these defenses being bypassed.
This is where the biggest challenge lies. Doing what YouTube does is not easy. I don’t think anyone could do it all. So it would have to be picking a choosing. Can anyone upload hours/days/years worth of video content? Are the people who put up those videos able to get paid without having to create their own relationships with advertisers or asking for viewer donations? How are copyright violations handled? Or more sinister video content?
Peertube is a federated system that already handles video.
Moderation is handled by instances with more personal mods.
Bandwidth is handled via multiple instances & p2p protocols so viewers help distribute the load.
I think you’re overstating how difficult youtube’s job is. A lot of that work is problems youtube creates for thsmselves by trying to squeeze their platform for more money. A federated platform doesn’t have that issue.
Yes, things get easier when you take paying creators out of the mix.
Youtube pays creators basically nothing.
$10-$30/1,000 views doesn’t sound like much. Except the people who make a career out of YouTube are regularly producing 100k+ view videos. It adds up. It’s one of the things you can pick and choose to leave out of a competitor. But it is a major reason why people put videos on YouTube.
That’s the absolute top end. Most accounts see 50 cents per thousand.
Why lie?
Do you have a source for that? What are you basing it on?
Idk, what are your sources? What the fuck? You wanna demand sources, gib first.
So did you just make up a number? I did try some searching before I spat out mine. It wasn’t extensive research and figured anyone doing any cursory check would come away with the same answer. Which is why I didn’t bother linking anything. I couldn’t find anything that said as low as $0.50/1000 and have never heard a creator saying that low. Hence me asking where you got your number.

Why do they even do that. Instagram, tiktok don’t share their ad revenue with their content creators.
Not sure. But it is one of the cornerstones of YouTube. Also tiktok does pay creators.
