Why is there no significant competitor to YouTube?

1.48K viewsEconomicsOther

Youtube doesn’t have a large competitor challenging it for market share like other major companies do. There are plenty of streaming services, but YouTube is the only game in town when it comes to people generally browsing video content and following their favorite creators.

Coca-Cola has Pepsi. McDonald’s has Burger King. Toyota has Honda. Why doesn’t YouTube have one?

There probably won’t be without some anti-trust action, but who knows. There are small scale competitors who specialize in content that youtube won’t allow. Porn is the obvious one. But there are a couple of niche companies who do other content for things like firearms and warfare. Youtube doesn’t allow certain types of content, and sometimes what is acceptable and what is not is hard to figure out.
