@phoneinf Well, in my case - they destroyed my account and email over content that was marked as creative commons, and as I dont have a video scanning bot like they do, there was no way for me to know this was the case. And yes YouTube might be not super profitable, but its part of Google is IS mega profitable, and they are transforming YouTube into a Netflix sort of platform, so yes in the meantime it is not profitable, but also Google mines all the info from videos and comments and sells it to advertisers via Google mainframe as well... So I think its a bit of a stretch to have a pity party for them. Now I will admit that I AM super grateful o YouTube for broadening my horizons in so many ways - but I see it heading in another direction entirely since google came in - thats why i am here!

Yes it's true they do that. But they do share some revenue with the creators. But they have become too big as of this moment. Especially when they own the search that majority use haha. A bit scary in a way!
Very happy to have discovered Steemit from a friend a month ago. Still feels like a dream how great this service works. So weird with Google how they are allowed to not even have phone support.. And they still have super many glitches and bugs on YouTube even 10 years later... Steemit is a great step forward!
Especially when they are so dedicated just check this out: https://smt.steem.io/
