What is Youtube Gaming even supposed to be?

Madden isn't a popular stream game at all. Black Ops 3's section isn't suprising either. Lots of people stream it, but what I saw was not what you saw.

Youtube Gaming isn't just for streaming. It's for all types of gaming content.

I went to the Rare Replay section. A video in the 4th row from the top is from a channel with less than 10k subs. In the fifth row is a video by someone with less than 500 subs. In the 6th row is a video by a channel with less than 150 subs.

How about Minecraft? In the 3rd row from the top is a stream by someone with less than 900 subs. In the 4th row is a stream by someone with 101 subs.

5 Nights at Freddy's 4. The second video listed is a stream by someone with under 200 subs. In the 4th row is a video by a channel with around 4000 subs. In the 8th row is a video by eric_shift1 (i'm only naming him because he's a member of this subreddit).

Not every video can be by some small channel. Regardless of what platform any content is on, the bigger names will be promoted and the smaller ones won't be nearly as much. I guess if you pick and choose certain games based on arbitrary reasons like whether they are popular stream games, then yeah, they aren't promoting any small channels.

I don't think you get it. Youtube hasn't treated us well.

I guess I don't. I haven't been treated very bad. At least not that I am aware of. Sure, I'd love it if my videos got promoted by Youtube, but I understand how the system works. I'm not going to get promoted just because I want to be.

I'm not on a anti-Youtube hate train ya' know

I mean, your channel was recently banned. Your opinion isn't exactly unbiased.

Blindly following and loving everything they do is not an option for me. I'm sorry I can't just accept every shitty decision they make.

Are you trying to imply that I do blindly love it? I don't love it. but I also don't hate it. I see more smaller channels with their videos actually where people can see them than I do on Youtube with over 100 popular channels blocked. It could be better and be more useful for content creators, but it's not some useless pile of shit either.
