Can we be sure about that? YT is owned by Alphabet, a publicly traded company. However, they have chosen not to disclose the financial statements of YT, thus not telling investors about profits or losses. Now think about it: if you had a cash cow that was making you a fortune, wouldn’t you want to disclose that to investors, make it public, so that your company (and the stock you own in it) is worth more? And yet they don’t do that, which makes me (and Louis Rossman apparently) think that YT is likely not as profitable as we may think, if it even turns a profit. The ad business, especially now, is not doing well, which coincides with YT’s crackdown on ad blocking. Why would that be? Probably because they are at a loss rn, and are truing to make that back by forcing users to watch ads.
That’s why I was going through my list of Youtubers I’ve subscribed to the other day. So basically, many of them are on Odyssey or PeerTube, and some have their own podcasts and blogs, so I’ll be able to keep up with most of the creators I follow on YT, and the work they do.
I’m not in the Empress telegram. Where can I find her releases? I genuinely haven’t seen them much, and I mostly play old and/or indie titles because of lower resource usage.
So they block adblockers and then hike their prices? It was as Louis Rossmann said: If YouTube was making a profit, you’d expect Alphabet (the publicly traded parent company to Google and Youtube) to disclose its profitability to attract investors, but they don’t, so it’s quite likely YouTube was operating near break-even or at a loss until now.
Have you done mobile, Android/apk cracking? Oftentimes these games have lower security, but I’m guessing it will be very different to Windows programs.
If you need a game when you get to it, a game I’ve had in my sights is AC: Pirates. It’s a small mobile AC game inspired by AC4: Black Flag. There are plenty of mods for it, but there isn’t a “free purchases” mod that would allow you to purchase the best ship in the game. I’ve looked. So if you need a project in the mobile space, that’s one you can go for.
