Youtube says the gravy train is over. They're demonitizing channels all the time. The ad-in-front-of-video model doesn't work no matter how many millions of views you might get for saying whatever dumbass thing that comes to your mind. They make a SHIT LOAD more MONEY off that spider man and Elsa crap.
So what does that mean for the future of the culture? When people can no longer make money from their bedroom by being a "personality" the discussion is going to change. It's all going to be controlled again by the big media. It's television 2.0
People shouldn't have gotten rich off youtube in the first place. Seriously, who less deserves to make thousands of dollars per month?

Really?! I can't even muster the energy to quality post more than once a day and you have the dedication to make the first leaf post of every thread a fantastic fuckery of fecal froth. Spectacular. Terrifying. When I gaze on your side of the river I think to myself, "I hope that current runs fast and deep."
Nathaniel Howard
LMAO nowhere near as effective. The few big names might survive on it for a while, but the whole populace of youtube that earned a passive living off of view money is dead. And the tax man is coming for Patreon users very soon.
Nathan Jackson
Pretty much every savvy youtube creator has a patreon specifically because youtube monetization is crap.

nobody makes money on youtube. or twitch. or any other streamer/vlogger/whatever the fuck - unless you have a pair of tits. the hardworking gamers who put time into being great at games (speedrunning, etc) never see a dime, but some dumb whore playing LOL who doesn't really play but just chats with her viewers gets literal thousands of dollars thrown at her. you never hear about the wage gap there, do you. there are alot of great content contributors, personalities, vidya players, musicians, artists, and other people that show their talent to the world and get nothing for it, but if you have a pussy, you get a free ride without having to do any of the work or actually be creative or interesting. this needs to stop.
Ethan Sanchez
Anyone with a working brain saw this coming when the monetizing of youtube took off. Once it's mainstream and part of the culture they can slowly start cutting their payments to content creators and people will continue to post videos because it's their 15 minutes of fame. The fame and recognition will draw new talent despite the income reduction.
Adrian Clark
Patreon leaves the owner beholden to being in the good graces of the patrons. With youtube you can piss people off and still make money as long as they watch the video.
Patrons only have so much money as well. You might watch 10 different youtube channels and in the old system they'd all make money. Now no longer, and you probably won't donate to any of them all.
John James
Perhaps people will post video for free because it's important to them, rather than because they're doing it for the shekels
Gosh.
It's almost as if they did us a favour

Jayden Thompson
I don't get what Youtube hopes the gain honestly.
Is it hoping to be the next Netflix or something in the coming years? What will people even watch if the independent Youtube creators are demonetized and kicked off?
I don't go to Youtube to watch Jimmy Kimmel and shit like that, and i already have a Netflix subscription.
Ayden Harris
You know, niggers are lucky youtube didnt charge you money based on tiers. So many channels have endless gigabytes of high quality lengthy footage and youtube hosts it all for absolutely free. Doesn'r cost anyone a dime to upload or download.
Like damn, youtube could have been a lot different and you cocksuckers are spoiled rotten.
Justin Murphy
you're literally a faggot
Alexander Evans
okay this is retarded and complete nonsense mate, the top streamers are all blokes and they earn a fucking truck ton, not sure where you're going with this shitty and abhorrently bad narrative quite frankly and yeah some whores get money from men, who the fuck knew , that's happened for centuries.
Brody Nguyen
Some of these youtube creators were making serious money from their channels, with the monetization going down the drain they won't see but a fraction of the same income by counting on donations. I wouldn't pay a dime to any of them and I watch a few different youtube channels. Youtube isn't a career and never should have gotten to the point that it could be considered a career, get a real fucking job and post your videos on the interwebs in your spare time.
but if they want to do that shit, they can go on chaturbate. they need to get out of the gamer market. just because they have a dx racer chair and some pink earphones doesn't make them a competent player. they're all universally boring and suck at everything they play. yet they rake in the most donations out of anyone, for doing nothing. it really makes me sick, why do people give them cash? if they want female companions to make small talk with there's always hookers. i throw a few dollars to the guys i watch when they do streams to support them and their hard work. i see them do something really awesome or just playthough/beat a game, i will tip them for it, etc. these youtube and twitch sluts really activate my almonds.
Jason Lee
>boohoo it's censorship! Just upload somewhere else. Make a last video in your account saying where the next videos will be. InRangeTV already demonetized themselves and spread their content, it's the way to go.
Brandon Thompson
I'll be glad to see the internet going partially back to being a place for hobbyists.
Now if only written websites would come back. Video is cancer.
Tyler Carter
the top streamers may be all guys but they are in their own specific field and bring something to the table. have you not seen vids of these girls getting $5000 donations for nothing from lonely guys?
Jaxson Cox
Yup. Youtube, Google, and Facebook gives everyone the fucking world for free. Why? Because they make money off of ad revenue and selling the data to marketers.
But two things are about to happen. 1. they're figuring out the ads don't sell shit 2. marketers already have mountains of data and more of it isn't going to tell them much better about how to sell a toaster to someone
So that means the business model no longer works. What then? Start chargin' for access.
And you know what that means? Fucking shills are going to get BTFO because they won't be able to have 983,394,394 shillposting and shitposting accounts to shift the culture where they want it to go. Unless they want to spend literally millions and millions of dollars on it.
Landon Edwards
Nothing will change as most youtube personalities already have extra revenue streams and youtube is simple too big of a platform for them to move.
Similarly to twitch streaming where ad revenue is almost non existent people make money off of donations, subs and patreon.
Brayden Gray
There's a difference between a courtesan and a whore, bro.
Owen Gutierrez
>not thinking that influence is worth the money they will desperately keep these meme platforms afloat but since Trump took the helm they can't do it with taxpayers money any more

Logan Richardson
If they fully integrate it with streaming i.e. netflix, the whole thing becomes a subscription and google becomes the new cable tv. I'm sure that they'll always have the channels and anyone can make a channel and post videos, but im sure they've got something much larger up their sleeve.
Luke Rivera
>Just upload somewhere else yeah get dat dailymotion money lol
James Johnson
>charging for access That's not gonna happen. People are already used to just having these things for free, if they can't have them from google, they'll get it from some other provider. Be it Vimeo or whatever.
Alexander Morris
Yeah i've seen it, i for one do not trust these streaming sites in general, lets just say, it's quite easy to manipulate people to giving money or make it look as if you're getting more than you actually are, all i'm saying is, going off of the numbers that twitch show, whether they are viewbotted or not, guys tend to rack up those views and numbers of dollars too more so than girls and most of the time the girls are viewed badly from the majority anyway because they are nasty fucking whores that just leech and provide absolutely nothing.
I wouldn't believe everything you see on the internet my friend , and if they do receive money from lonely guys , who cares it's upto them if they want to be pathetic beta pussies.
Easton Stewart
It'll be cheap, like a dollar a month. People will pay for it because they can't go without it.

Nobody is at fault except the viewers. What are you going to do, ban women from streaming? If people want to watch sluts they will, and if you were a woman with a nice rack you would be fucking stupid not to take advantage of that for easy money. It's not fair but it's not wrong either.
Robert Moore
Duh.
You can't just have people being free and shit. Nigger's feelings get hurt.
Jose Barnes
You try again, nigger. Maybe make a trip to wikipedia and learn a damn thing about how different words have different meanings. Courtesans are whores + a whole shitload of other bonus material on top.
Adrian Adams
This.
Still, the same happened with Whatsapp a few years ago. They never charged anyone because it would only kill the service. Now, regarding the ads income, i don't see any feasible way of keeping it the way it is. There simply isn't another big ass source of money to pay those content creators.
>Thank you for all the comments. I've been reading them closely and take your feedback seriously.

Milo Yiannopoulos was making 20k a month off of his lecture videos before they were demonitised. I have a larger issue with Youtube's algorithm that automatically flags vids for no ads because of political content or something as benign as swearing. YouTube flat out deleted one of Mark Dice's vids the other day because he was reporting on black on white crime, and was warned that if he uploads another vid they disagree with, they'll just delete his account altogether. PJW has had videos selectively deleted that were several years old! Imagine his shock!

Youtube was stupid to even pay those lowlives from the start. And to pay them so much was without reason. All it did was kill off the vibe of the site, which was people reaching out to others and replaced that with shameless scumbags desperately looking for subs/likes/views
Chase Brown
They've been cutting payments for years now. Back in the day, even a shitty channel getting a moderate number of views could pay the owner over a $100k. YouTube noticed this and realized they were throwing way too much out the window. I don't mind them getting scaled back a bit and eliminating all the trash on there. What we should really foucs on is Twitch. This crap provides absolutely no value and these faggots deserve nothing.

I know, but Gab had a million raised in funding, I assume they have some kind of revenue plan, but I can't figure out how exactly.
Don't know why I even mentioned PewTube, literally has 250K views altogether.
Regardless, the arrogance of these filthy Youtube fuckers is just astonishing to me. Do they not realize that it was inevitable for ad revenue to sharply decline?
I would be more worried about how companies like Twitter having their IPO based entirely on bogus numbers and esoteric methods of calculating worth that now looks more like a scam. How much fake money is in circulation on stock markets because of these digital platform companies, it will probably crash parts of the economy if their valuation was adjusted to reflect what is happening with ad revenue these days.
