Well, it’s certainly unpopular, but I’m of the same opinion. Google core business, serving ads in ad searches, is already slowing down because of the way the Internet landscape has changed. For all the complaints about YouTube, it’s the one platform that isn’t going to shut your account because you criticize, advertise, or try to get your subscribers to move onto other platforms, that is hosting high footprint, high bandwidth media for you and your subscribers freely, and that has the highest concentration of users.
I’d rather see YouTube continue running than get Yet Another Google service shutting down. Otherwise, it will become a fractured landscape where the conditions for channels and viewers alike will drop because the lenient market norm will no longer exist. It’s probably way off until that happens. It will leave the longtime monopoly with a persistent history of trying to screw over its users, Microsoft, free reign to wheel into the market with something far, far worse.
