No, I don't aspire to be a writer for a living. If I publish something I do it to share knowledge or for personal branding.

Ofc they're a business. But in youtube terms. As a creator you either put your video behind a paywall,and not necessarily get paid, or your video will never show up in any recommendations. So unless somebody searches for it or has the link. Nobody is going to see it. And every viewer on youtube gets 5 videos a month.

Has a bit of a bad taste for me.
