It's a problem of scale. If a platform takes off, the site slows or goes down. They need to invest more on hosting, which drives up the prices. Then people leave because it's not reliable, and the company is left with a huge bill.

Maybe it'd be better to have multiple video sites with their own niche categories, instead of a one stop shop. That might be easier to maintain.

Something like creators self hosting their content and the videos get shared with some sort of federated community… Hmmmm 🤔

Neh, it will never work.
