      That will only be an option if content creators don’t use it either. And they will look where their audience goes, which will mostly be nowhere.

        I mean, there is always the option of putting down YouTube and going outside, or picking up a hobby or something.

        Gross, I know, having to live in the stone ages, but there’s always another option.

          In a really twisted way, Youtube is a fairly big reason why a good number of people go outside, take up hobbies, etc.

          You’re talking as if watching content on YouTube wasn’t a hobby like going to the cinema or theater.

          I’ll go somewhere Nazism isn’t openly encouraged, thank you. YouTube is terrible but at least they pretend they think Nazism is bad.
