advertisers and youtube favoring people who can make multiple, repetitive, instant view generating content over people who create actual content
yeah, basically
and not in a weird nostalgia way, but in an actual, genuine way, I'd like to see youtube be more like it used to be.
like, if you use wayback machine, you can see tons of featured videos with like 20-100 views (which is actually a neat feature, letting random people get their stuff on the front page) and the videos are just random but genuinely interesting and in a way more human and personal than a bunch of let's play garbage being put up for ad revenue
just short videos of people havin a good time, walking and talking around the house or outdoors, doing something they think is cool, going out travelling, or telling a story they have
it's like home videos and personal experiences sent out for a bunch of strangers, and it's kinda nice
:-)
