When did YouTube turn into QVC for millennials and zoomers?

[itsyoung!!]

all I know is raid: shadow legends gotta have a billion dollar advertising budget

them and NordVPN gotta be drug money laundering NordVPN got like every big streamer to daily promote that.. these guys get paid $500k just to play a game a few hours , that Nord sponsorship gotta be a million minimum per big streamer/youtuber

youtube is pretty much tv now and the companies know that
with that being said I do think it's hilarious when YouTubers are selling shirts and shyt like damn anyone can really be their own brand now
go back 30 years they would be in best buy or something. now they're making a living doing dumb shyt

There’s an English guy who goes round the world eating English breakfasts and other cheap, shyt food, he has his own clothes merch lol

who the fukk Is buying a macmaster t-shirt?



YouTube baffles me with how much money they earn? There is so many vloggers these days, hovering around 60,000 views a video, do they earn enough to be full time?

I watch a guy who tastes craft beer at about 1000 views a video and even he gets sent free beer from time to time lol

When they do the commercials in the middle of the video nullifying my ad block, that annoys me. Watching a Punk (FGC) video and he cuts paid promotions. His channel started out as a good one until that LTG advice hit him. He's been shilling and trying to meme it up ever since. His editor is the worst.

Only see ads at the movie theaters and watching NBA games.

remember when theaters didn't have ads

only "Ad" was the concession stand jingle

I use SmartTubeNext on my Shield at home. Jumps over intros, sponsors, and anything else that isn't the main video.

Youtube lost its soul once ppl started making really money off of being monetized.

Man, there used to be a time the YouTube frontpage had 'recently added' where you could see the most random shyt that was uploaded the second you got on the site. At that time you could really discover some amazing things. There were no ads so anybody making content was in it for the love.
Also the option to make a video reply made for some prime fukkery.

I miss those days

When YouTube became a job it was all over. These days most of the people in the same space can't even differentiate their videos. They all come out at the same time for some embargoed product and the YouTuber says the stock company talking points. They can't say too much or they'll damage their relationship with what ever brand gives them their free products they say they weren't paid to review yet get to keep.
