I can’t believe people PAY for YouTube.

The worst part is that it would never be viewed legally as a monopoly because it simply isn't.

Vimeo and Dailymotion have been around for years, and Odysee isn't too bad. Facebook and IG host short video, then you have all the mostly shithole "free speech = trash YT demonetized" sites like Rumble and BitChute and Kick and I think a couple others.

The actual worst part is that there's no cohesive audience for each platform, and YT is always the absolute go-to for media like music videos and music due to copyright license agreements.
