Because that is a bare minimum solution that only works via web. YouTube provides native clients for mobile, TVs, consoles, etc.

Also, because Google pays you to host your videos, if you are willing to allow advertising.

I mean, given what Blender is, having tutorial videos accessible by anything other than desktop browsing isn't a hopeless or horrible thing. Every Blender user has a desktop or laptop (or has modded something to heck and back in order to run Blender), so having it be somewhat difficult to access a majority of their videos by mobile, TV, console, etc, might not be such a big loss.

IME mobile works fine too, so it’s just TVs and consoles losing out (and there’s always chromecasting).

I say it’s a more than good enough delivery “platform” for this kind of stuff.
