So
Libby.appbut for video?I mean, think of the savings in server architecture!
Looks like an overly complicated way to indicate which videos not to watch.
You already can see the view count unless your client is broken (looking at you, NewPipe)
The Notify Me button is only for premium subscriptions
Maximum concurrent viewers for a given video could be a way to lower stress on YT servers, requiring less servers thus costing less to maintain, thus less ads/more money for creators, at least in a more rational and less greedy world.
If scheduled programming vs on demand was something that channel owners or users could pick for themselves it would be an apocalypse or a new golden age for YouTube.
Not sure which, but it would sure be different.
This, but they can monetise it by having a bidding war and you can skip the line in regard of how much you pay.
Ahh, the capitalist hellscape is coming along nicely.
Or buy booster packs in the store to jump up to ten places per purchase! Booster packs now only 799 Youtube Coins, sold in packs of 798 per pack!
You can bid on a box that may contain a coveted line skip, or one of over 50,000 emotes and valuable partner discounts.
Look at this employee of the month over here! :D
It’s also practical bcs we don’t have to code shit since there won’t be any chances of winning.
Invent a problem and make people pay for not having it.
And we define that as “added value” for some reason.
It really advances humanity.
I think it’s called market elasticity
If it’s good enough for public libraries, it’s good enough for corporations!
It would show ads until then, or 5 ads, whatever comes last
be careful they’ll see this and actually add it
How about you gotta upload one video to watch one video. If you want to watch a video that has been watched two times you need a video that has been watched two times or a longer by two video that has been watched once, or two equivalent videos watched once time each.
That sounds like socialism to me!
Noh! Socialism is where only one guy works and the rest of us mooch from him.
How do you get the views before the uploads? 🤔
Somebody has to watch them 🤣.
Can girls just might be profitable enough for YouTube to try it!😆
Sign up for youtube Ultra premium and skip the queue!
Ultra premium only allows you to join the express queue with other ultra premium users.
To skip the queue you need Diamond premium membership and a small fee of $2.
- Per video
Like FastPass at theme parks. You pay extra to stand in a shorter queue.
If you pay money you can move up the queue.
The queue is an auction. Pay an amount you choose to watch the video, view order goes by who paid the most.
Don’t give them ideas!!
Great idea.
This legitimately sounds like a viable app idea. I don’t know jack about bringing it to life but I absolutely see people buying into it.
You want to make real money? Make with porn videos
If you are already half way there you can’t just wait 10 minutes or you have to restart. You need the next video quickly.
I bet that’d work well in FinDom circles. I know even less about the Porn industry than I do app making but the idea seems viable.
Funnily enough, this is almost exactly how ads are served to you. Advertisers get your profile, try and figure out how valuable an impression will be, bid against other advertisers, and the winning bid gets to show you the ad. All within the fraction of a second of a page loading.
To save your time for anyone who had the same brainwave I had: Multiplying the length of the Blank Space video by 95,081 gives you 300 days, 10 hrs, 18 minutes and 33 seconds. So the wait time is close. Maybe they’re counting on 1% of people dying during the wait.
Nice of them to leave the queue in their last moments
Actually 2% are expected to die, but only half of them remain in the queue because their phones are plugged in.
No advertisements? Too unrealistic.
Screenshot fails to show the video attempting to load every 30 seconds. But it then turns out to be an advert.
Users get the same feeling they get whilst waiting for an agent, and the hold music gets interrupted with “your call is important to us…”
