      Hope not, that would be a crushing blow! Since I generally boycott YT, I checked out Zara Dar’s What is a Neural Network. It’s a good overview, and well presented. Ah, a look there’s a part 2. It would be great if she could hit 1M views on ProhNub, as a result of this post. Only 207K over the past year, with 2K updoots.

    Doesn’t seem like she is doing this but watching a coding tutorial with a topless girl presenting it would be much more fun. I wonder if there is a market for this

      She’s literally a public figure posting for money. You can see her name below. Obviously the person who censored it doesn’t understand the topics of her content.

      I tend to prefer creators who do the donation model (e.g. Patreon). The advertisement and sponsorship models create bad incentives. The donation model can too, but it’s preferable, IMO.

    I know there are gamer girls on sites like Fansly and OnlyFans that stream their gaming sessions in the same way they would on Twitch. I wonder what the engagement and income is for them on those sites versus Twitch or YouTube.

    EDIT: I just watched Zara Dar’s PornHub video on Loss Functions. Her delivery is a tad robotic but the content is informative.

    She’s very suggestive in her choice of dress in most of these videos that are on her pornhub though, so there’s that.

      Is that an average/median OnlyFans creator, or one of the ones who are considered successful?

      Edit: Oh, that’s actually the creator from the post. TBH that seems like really intimate information, in a different way than whatever she’s probably doing on OnlyFans.

      I’m just imagining a world where YouTube is so shit and pays so poorly that most content creators move to pornhub, and it becomes a respectable place to go to learn stuff and watch video essays, more than porn

      That has been true for a while. Ever since “the adpocalypse”. I’m surprised you missed it because it felt like every YouTube creator was complaining about it for an entire year ( which I’m not really against, I just don’t give a shit about YouTube inside baseball).

      That’s why every video now has " brought to you by… Whatever" in the middle of it.

        YouTube creator was complaining

        Yeah I don’t invest much time into addressing youtuber complaints. But I’ll take what you said at face value.

          They’re working class in the entertainment industry, their complaints are as valid as any other laborer.

            I thought being a creator on youtube was about tricking people into doing massive amounts of video editing for very little pay.

              Absolutely true. There isn’t a single content creator that knows how to edit their videos. This demanding task can only be done by people who don’t create content. For every successful content creator, there are three broke editors adding JL cuts in iMovie.

            It’s also a machine that thrives on manufacturing drama for clicks. And I just won’t engage in the ‘meta drama’ around any community.

              Working conditions and payment disputes are not “meta drama” and more than a “community” it’s an industry of freelancers. You may not care for it but independent entertainment is a huge part of our culture right now, in terms of hours watched per day and revenue generation. It’s a parallel arm of the gig economy, uncontracted workers entirely at the mercy of huge media companies and the fickle public.

      A $1 CPM (per thousand impressions) is actually pretty good for a platform like Pornhub where I assume most people are logged out/incognito etc. on an adult content.

      If YouTube is really only paying out $0.34 CPM to that creator, that is atrocious. They must be getting like 20% rev share.

      The fourth stage is to run away with the money, leaving stockholders and investors with a failed company in their hands which they can’t bring back from the dead because both users and business partners hate it.
