Tying yourself (and your job and income and status) to one company or one platform for years on end seems like a terrible choice. It doesn't seem to matter much what the service or platform is: Youtube, Twitch, Airbnb, Uber, Monsanto, etc... who cares? If you need that platform for your career then that platform owns you.

Every company is going to cut costs and converge more to the safe mean over the long term. The history is pretty clear on this. Why would you tie your whole life to a company and then spend every day complaining about that company?

I imagine many of these content creators are not "tied" to Youtube, but have alternate income streams like Patreon. I know at least one youtuber that has talked about how they've diversified their income.

If you truly believe that... then you must change jobs every few years. If not, you’re a hypocrite. So, how long have you been at your current job?
