I remember he made a YouTube video around 2007-2008 about that the Internet would be shut down and controlled hahahah. I think he also played that WoW game or what they call it...

Seems he has a dying following and has moved to the fringe. Is he really a good target?
Well you have a good point in there.
Many people from other platforms are surely falling off. Have we had any real successful YouTuber come here? If you switch up your content to something else sure. But bring over an audience that likes a place already will probably not happen.
This Steemit thing is too nuanced. Needs fresh new people that can build up something new. I don't think we need established people from other places to be honest. We have the liquidity in form of Tokens to build up anything or anyone.
The same thing that happened to youtube needs to happen here.
I dont think you saw any "old media" creators go to youtube at the start and create any kind of career for themselves. It was new people starting up.
Athene seems to be so far from having credibility at this point in the internet community, and is even seen from what i read as being "cuckoo"..
Not that he shouldnt come. Everyone is welcome but i dont think even a open letter to pewdipie should be trending
Yeah I agree,
It was so frustrating for me seeing the quality degrade on YouTube from 2015 and onward. I already then started to look for solutions. Steemit summoned the next year. It's such a mess on all the other platforms right now since the lack of relationships and how it's extremely 1 sided communication.
Cash needs to flow from real companies pockets to pay for things. So much management and rules and stuff that slows the whole process down. Companies operate from a scarcity mindset. They have no real liquidity. To make a decision 10 people needs to be involved. Fees. Mess. Ugh. The power structure is completely lacking also on YouTube for building something more balanced and stable. I really got all my dreams come true with the Steem Blockchain. It's really too good to be true and that this is only a Beta... That something this amazing could come out a few years later is absolutely amazing.
But how do you work (youre basically working for youtube) with a company that gives little to no feedback to creators, makes changes without consulting with those that attract viewers, makes decisions and acts in a way that promote or hides creators they favor or do not favor.....
Its very odd. If a "normal" company had so much bias towards certain worldviews and acted in a way that favors one employee over the other you would have lawsuits.
And youtube isnt just a platform. When you introduce corporate structure, a corporate philosophy you become a company. Youtube isnt just a place where you put your videos up.
Yes you are right. I felt so trapped.
