We run the biggest Czech Peertube instance and I knew any professional youtubers would be out of our range, but there are thousands of creators with good content, but little or no money from Google and I thought it would be easier to lure them to Peertube since they aren't losing any money doing so.
But the fact is that many of them live the dream of becoming a professional youtuber. Although they earn no money and 99% of them never will, they still live the dream that maybe one day... And every new follower on YT gets them closer to it and every follower on PT doesn't.
The whole YouTube thing is perfectly designed monopolistic machine.
