Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

He and his team figured out the YouTube algorithm. He then took the money and spend it back on production. Because there are no guidelines or regulations of YouTube videos production, he is able to use any ethical or non-ethical tactics. His videos is treated like a high budget movie where every second count.

Companies sees his money and everyone want to get piece of the cacke so he is more visible to demographic outside of his target audience.

He also invests a lot in localisation which makes his videos appealing to non western audiences.
