MODERATORS
If they weren't comfortable with not getting YT ad revenue, they wouldn't be uploading their content to alternative sites.
Relying on YT as the gatekeeper to your entire livelihood also has a cost. It's not trivial to calculate but I imagine it's greater than the loss of AdSense money. There's a reason many people who rely on video content creation to survive hedge through the likes of Nebula, Floatplane or, indeed, Odyssey.
