When you look at X today and Reddit in years past, YouTube was well run.

And her legacy will be the incredible and I would argue positive impact it has had on society.



Why? I would absolutely have community notes over political censorship every day.


The most free expression on the internet currently. Of course I t is hated by a majority segment who is mad the old system was taken away.


Not the day to argue about this, but this is definitely not the canonical opinion on her work for youtube


Agreed Youtube is still my goto platform for entertainment and it is not a total cesspool like X - she left behind a great legacy never mind the fake controversies stoked by some content creators to get clicks.

There is always Kick and Rumble if you did not like it.


And I’ll argue the negative impact, but not today.


Censorship platforms do not benefit society. They benefit the censors and shareholders. Nobody reaps benefit from other people deciding what they shouldn’t be able to watch.


It's remarkably easy to think of examples that disprove that claim. First one to pop into my head was 'how to make bathroom cleaner at home with bleach and alcohol'
