For example there are technological experts, travel vloggers, social reviewers , artists , gaming experts & content creators including comedy artists. As YouTube is also a social media in present it became one of the fastest network where audience can find facts in both audio and visual mode. But who are these people called "YouTubers" simply they are the people who uploads videos to YouTube. According to Sri Lankan context most of the YouTube channels and YouTubers are trash because of the competition for viewers and subscribers. There are unwritten but famous ways to become popular in YouTube industry - that are share gossips about some celebrity or public figure including their private life, market poor people, double meaning talks, naked/half naked videos etc.But luckily in Sri Lanka there are so many influential YouTubers who share technological facts, motivational thoughts, beauty hacks, social reviews and even humor. But why these people important. This can be addressed by several point of views. As most of YouTubers are engaging in a rat race to gain viewers, subscribers they try to publish any sort of a video though it isn't useful or authentic.

I do agree with your end note, because it's the audience that should decide on what is worth watching and what is unhealthy for the society. And the other logic I would like to share is that the list of trending youtubers and YouTube channels show the status of a particular society.
ReplyDeleteI also agree with you that the audience should select what is right and what is wrong. We see that YouTubers tend to increase the viewers by adding unnecessary or various irrelevant things in their work.youtube has become a platform to earn money and most of the people in modern society take this as their job. I think it is better to use YouTube only for good side.
