MODERATORS
One thing to keep in mind beyond hosting cost is the uploader making money. YouTubes partner or paid channel things work (there are complaints) it's a LOT harder to replace those freeas add revenue pays them
Patreon, and better yet, Liberapay, already exist.
What’s Liberapay and how does it fair against Patreon?
I've never used it myself, but the TL;DR is that it's supposed to be basically like Patreon, except that:
sadly does not help smaller creators or starting creators. Want you to think if you paid 1-3$ per creator you watched. you would be less likely to watch as many. sadly adds/commercials work.
