that half sentence in the aa article though

"That move makes sense in many ways, as the platform needs to make money to survive..."

should we also start a gofundme for youtube, i am suddenly worried for them /s

not saying we should worry for them, but youtube is run at a loss so they do actually need money from SOMEWHERE to maintain youtube. youtube still sucks and this is definitely not the way to win over users but thems the facts
