I mean you could start a competitor. So could anyone. Only a company like Google can afford to keep losing money on something like YouTube.
Funny thing is I wouldn’t want the content to be decentralized. It’s nice to find all my crap in one place; and let a big company waste money to serve it.
This corporate Stockholm syndrome is so sad. “We need a better jailer!”
In a better world, i.e. the one of the internet as it was designed, you wouldn’t need to look for “a competitor” to Youtube. People would publish their stuff anywhere, using any software, and open protocols would make it all easy to find. The “all my crap in one place” would just be a cached decentralized index of some kind.
Yes, I know that the better world is further off than ever, but it is possible and it is better.
