I assume OP’s position is more like never buying a book from a publisher they perceive as being problematic.

YouTube is much closer to a "medium" than an a publisher.

That's also a reason to avoid it, to be honest... any time a publisher becomes closer to a medium than a publisher we're in trouble!

"Books" don't get a cut of all book sales, whereas YouTube gets a cut of all video profits. "Books" don't have editorial control over what goes in them, YouTube does. It's clearly closer to a publisher than a medium. Maybe you meant platform instead of medium?
