Before we get started discussing this: YouTube requires 1,000+ subscribers for a channel and a specific point of usage of hours viewed to monetize thru ad revenue.
Our experience with YouTube is that it works well as an opportunity to advertise – but we have already dealt with challenging copyright strikes and people reporting our videos(even when they were PG to PG-13 in content). YouTube as a platform exists to cater to higher level shows and their TV content while small creators are used to draw audiences to them which has created a dog-eat-dog mentality for a lot of streamers who focus on that content. Our goal is, again, fun before profit and our source for profit comes down to two select methods:
(a) Twitch monetization,
(b) Uplifting our cast and creative team to the fandom (such as advertising their Paypal or Ko-Fi),
