I admire their mission. Giving the power to the video creators is great. I'm all for coops. But, as a user I find it lacking. If you want to watch anything outside of educational videos and video essays you have to go elsewhere. It doesn't have very good content discovery. I know creators don't like chasing an algorithm, but as a viewer I like having recommendations based on what I watch.

I bought a one year membership, because I support what they are trying to do, but I rarely watch anything on it.

It's hard to provide something extra when all their content comes from users. They tried with ~~redtube~~ YouTube Red originals but those were pretty lame.

It's telling that pastors are the first people she wants to see what people are saying. Got to keep those sinners in line.

Civility is code for "stop complaining about how we treat you". Jesse Gender has a pretty good video about civility politics (2hrs 21mins): https://youtu.be/-1TL9id26Ec

Hey, you never know, maybe their real name is Meridian Longitude. I've never heard of Longitude as a last name but I wouldn't put it past some parents to name their kid Meridian.

If they want to drink wine and eat crackers while chanting, I ain't gonna kink shame. I don't have a problem with that. It's being controlling and treating people like shit that's the real problem.

Similar thing with Jeff Bezos. His mom was a single teenage mother who went to night school to graduate highschool. His bio dad bailed. His stepdad was a young immigrant. They gave him $300,000 to start Amazon, but they worked their way up to the point where they could do it.
