yes it does make profit. it's revenue is over 31 billion dollars if it was not making profit after having this much revenue. Google will just delete it.
Yes, YouTube is profitable for Google. In 2022, YouTube generated an estimated $29.2 billion in revenue, and its parent company, Alphabet, reported that YouTube contributed roughly 10% to all Google revenue. YouTube's primary revenue streams are advertising and subscription services. In 2022, advertising accounted for about 85% of YouTube's revenue, while subscription services accounted for about 15%.
YouTube's advertising revenue comes from a variety of sources, including:
YouTube's subscription services include:
YouTube's profitability is due to a number of factors, including:
While YouTube is profitable, it is not as profitable as some other online platforms. For example, Facebook's advertising revenue is about 98% of its total revenue. This is because YouTube shares a portion of its advertising revenue with content creators. However, YouTube's profitability is still significant, and it is a major source of revenue for Google.
Its current operating profit is estimated to be about 3-18% of the total revenue after removing costs, which while something wont last long when you have a finite number of people to show ads and get subs from but an infinite amount of data to store and transmit worldwide.
Lol yeah downloading newpipe is suuuch a hoop to jump through. 🙄
Or you can use an ad-blocker. Also youtube is profitable just fine. If it wasn't Google would have shut it down a long time ago.
I hate Ggle as a corporation, but LOVE YouTube. With that being said, FreeTube, NewPipe, and InnerTunes will be used by me until YouTube/Ggle goes bankrupt. After they replaced G**gle Play Music with YouTube music I want them to burn a fiery death.
Have you tried Piped? It lets you watch Youtube without ads, though you can't use it to comment, but I say you should give it a try.
if youtube forces me to watch ads i will stop watching youtube. i'm fine with it not bein profitable.
Installing ublock origins and sponsorblock is not jumping through hoops
And Google.with its basically infinite money should name it worthwhile to be paid for. But YouTube premium is garbage
I can't block the ads on my Roku TV, which is where most of my watching takes place.
Cope, mald and seethe, Youtube shill.
