If anybody knows somebody at YouTube, make sure they get this message.
Otherwise, some McKinsey idiot will come in ignoring this fact and YouTube will go down the drain too.
@zachweinersmith.bsky.socialLast thought because I should be drawing: part of why facebook is utter trash now whereas youtube still has good stuff is simply that youtube actually splits a lot of their revenue with creators. It may not last, but it means the ecosystem has money coming in to make better stuff. May it remain.
