i’m always amazed by the amount of money that Youtube produces, but good for Derek, he should enjoy his success.
When one has 20 million subscribers who get notified of the videos, those few cents per Ad, add up quickly. He’s also worked his ass off on the quality side of YouTube, which has earned him a lot of good will and supporters.
Goes to show that quality content, can also be profitable. It’s not all about the bottom dwellers.
It was just a general observation of how the Internet is completely financed by advertising. When it comes to Derek and his channel, I’m happy he has success, it’s one of the best channels on the whole platform.
It’s a yes or no question. Why the fuck does it need 17 minute video?
Oh right, that’s just a PR stunt.
I had no idea he was owned by private equity. This now comes as no surprise.
PE has leveraged my childhood to death: Toys r us, radio shack…
And destroyed some of the few places I’ve liked to go out to eat.
Veritasium is owned by vulture capitalists. This should surprise no one.
Good riddance
Would you like to elaborate for those of us who don’t know anything about the guy?
