   Good

   To be honest, YouTube is not only a platform where you can watch /download the video ,but a wonderful field where you can share and grow personally and help oher people to flourish through sharing your vision , art ,creativity ,etc.

   Dual purpose

   I like the idea of YouTube serving as a search engine and an entertaining feat

• Rogue System Reboot

  I did, however, remember another crowdfunding platform that may be the best of both worlds here (second highest voted so far being Patreon).

• Building an AI game studio: what we've learned so far

  Just get some popular streamers/channels to do a review/let's play and if they like it you'll get tons of free exposure. I've spent probably hundreds of dollars on indie games in the last year or so from first seeing them on a gaming channel and then pulling it up in steam.
