Nah, it's a subscription service, but it's got a few notable YouTubers and they tend to drop extra content there. PhilosophyTube is on there, 12Tone, a bunch of people. As a platform it's a lot less bullshit, but it's also obviously less content.
Though now I realize you actually have to get referred by one of the other members in order to start posting, so I'm not really sure they stand to benefit that much. It kind of explains why the content has been lacking. It certainly won't ever have the diversity of content that YouTube has with that approach.
Honestly learning that it's more of a market stall than a garden makes me less enthusiastic. It's there to curate what's already on YouTube without YouTube's limitations, not to create a better alternative that's actually sustainable.
That is done with the intention of keeping the quality of content high.
I doubt they want to get flooded with low effort "let's play" gamers or even lower effort AI voiceover stock footage crap.
It also doesn't have an algorithm, which would make it difficult to find content you want when there are loads of creators
Haha, reading this was like a journey. You can see your disillusion growing with every sentence.
