i think philosphy tube is broadcasting herself though, she's an actress and likes to put on a show, of course she's started to put on more of a show once she's gotten comfy in her skin & has a budget to do it
she's having fun whilst making educational videos, it's a win/win
it is a shame that everyone feels a pressure to perform to such high standard. if "yourself" isn't selling well enough you're either dropping out of youtube or ending up changing yourself into someone you're not
The "broadcast yourself" bit was meant more like "just turn on your webcam and start filming stuff".
speaking as an artist - we like to fuck around with the mediums we have, see how much we can express ourselves through it. but yeah not everyone wants to do that, and by now it's a requirement to be "unique" and "the best" which is whack
