It seems to me that it is pointless to compete with YouTube, but you can simply provide users with an alternative.
I agree, but after all as that it is necessary to attract users, to offer them something new. On the other hand, payment for activity is also a good motivation for users.
I am sure that paying for activity is the right decision and will attract many new users to the platform.
Of course, this is a great idea. Why only it did not come up with earlier. I could have already earned something, because I watched a lot of videos

. I also like the idea with the Brave browser. They also encourage their users, like Verasity.
