      Yeah, they should provide thousands of gigiabits of video streaming to everyone for free. It’s our right!

            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.

            As a contributor who doesn’t monetize videos, you don’t speak for everyone.

        Big platforms tend to forget they’re big because they’re free. It’s our duty to remind them.

        I wish the product was somewhat good too. Piped has features that even YT Premium users don’t have.

          You know they wouldn’t get paid if nobody watched the ads. And if they didn’t get paid they wouldn’t have any reason to pay to run the site. Explaining that a corporation will not run a site like YouTube for free (which it wouldn’t even be, it costs a lot of money to run) if they weren’t getting paid. Quit attacking other users simply for pointing out facts. It’s beneath you (I think)

              I never said that Google is on the verge of collapse, nor did I defend them. I merely stated that Google is a corporation, driven by profit, and expecting Google to act in the interest of anything but their own profits is a fool’s fantasy. Quit putting words in people’s mouths. It’s unbecoming of anyone that wants to have a legitimate discussion and it’s just toxic.
