| Creators are already starting to build their own platforms for hosting videos and many of these are quite successful unlike prior iterations from 10 years ago. |

| ▲ | pyth0 5 days ago | parent | next [-] | | I would point to platforms like Curiosity Stream and Nebula, which are creator driven. Though I would not exactly call them Youtube replacements, as they are more just platforms designed for supporting specific creators more directly (akin to Patreon). These platforms are often advertised as in-video sponsorships, so going back to the original point, I do think creators would be very vocal if such ads were banned. | |

| They wouldn't have a choice, your average big youtube channel earns 95% of their revenue from sponsorship. It would either be trying a revolt or stop youtube. |
