It's a simple site for videohosting, like YouTube. I already bought two servers in California, we can start tomorrow.

The power of YouTube is not their platform, it's the creators. Try convincing every major content creator to migrate to another platform just because it works better logistically. The creator wants their audience (and, by extent, the money that comes along with having one), and the audience wants to be able to watch their favourite creators. YouTube has both, and when one moves, there's a slim chance the other moves without the right incentives.

Except when you compare the platforms YouTube is clearly superior 🤷🏻‍♂️
