Why does Youtube have to come to an end or be this evil empire. Maybe the rise of Steemit will make Youtube step up there game and get back to how things used to be.

There is always possibility, but it would mean that if youtube, vimeo or any other video platform wants to stand it would have to become decentralised. I think future is in decentralisation rather than the fact that youtube would just be crushed.

It might be that steemit don't take that talking stick in it's hands and it is some other decentralised solution, but I think overall we are looking into the future through the Steemit glasses.
